To add work to the galleries:

1) Go to My Bubble. Click the 'art' tab. Scroll down to the piece you want to add, then click the 'edit' link.

2) Right click on the image (control click if you’re on a Mac). In the drop down list, click 'copy image location' or 'copy image address'. This automatically copies the text for you. If you don't get an option like this, click ‘properties'. In the box that pops up, select and copy the line of code under ‘location’. To copy, click and drag to highlight the text, then hit control-C (or command-C on a Mac).

3) You can now paste this text (control-V or command-V on a Mac) into your gallery forum post. It will look like this:

http://images-0.redbubble.com/rbimages/mybubble_work_main_view/08-FallenKings.jpg

4) To make it appear as an image, put an exclamation mark immediately before and immediately after the text (no spaces). It will look like this:

!http://images-0.redbubble.com/rbimages/mybubble_work_main_view/08-FallenKings.jpg!

Now your image will display in the forum (also works in other places on RB such as journal entries or art pages)

Note: If your art piece is a wide/landscape format, it may appear in the galleries page with a scroll bar. The 'canvas print' preview of your image (click buy/preview, click canvas print) is not as wide and will work well in the gallery. You can easily display this image instead, just follow the instructions above.

 

To make the image into a link to your page:

1) You need to copy the address or url of your red bubble art piece. To do this, go to the page, and in the address bar at the top of your browser, copy the url that is displayed.

2) In your forum post, so that red bubble knows your image is a link, you need to add a " at the very beginning of the location text you pasted earlier, a " at the end, then a : , and then you can paste the address you just copied. It will look like this:

"!http://images-0.redbubble.com/rbimages/mybubble_work_main_view/08-FallenKings.jpg!":http://www.redbubble.com/people/firedrake/art/841411-1-fallen-kings

So basically, " ! image location ! " : art page address

Though make sure you have no spaces in your finished text, or it won't work. Also make sure that you copy the complete image location or url, don't miss out any letters or numbers, or it will not display properly.

Happy adding!
