Using a MySpace Upload Picture Code

A MySpace upload picture code allows you to upload your photos and other images directly to your MySpace page.  It seems like every body on the planet has a MySpace page these days, and there are many my space "generators" to help personalize your page and make it unique.

Uploading pictures is just one of the many features available to customize your MySpace page.  But the problem is, most people are not computer programmers, or even technical "geeks."  So how do the rest of us take advantage of the great MySpace generators available?

Fortunately, there are a lot of great sites on the Web that can assist you in creating upload picture codes and other cool generators to "pimp" your MySpace page.  Many of these sites provide free image hosting for your MySpace, FaceBook and even eBay pages.  The procedure to upload images to the sites and receive your convenient code for using the photo on your MySpace page could not be easier.

Take for example a web site like imagecross.com.  Imagecross provides free hosting for your MySpace or FaceBook pictures, and it's simple to use.  The user only has to click the browse button on the Imagecross homepage, and then select the location on their computer where the picture is located.

If you're having trouble locating a picture on your computer, always check "my pictures" under the "my documents" folder.  Usually, a Windows computer will save photos and other images to the "my pictures" folder by default, so you are very likely to find the image you are looking for there.  If, however, you do not find your photo under "my pictures," be sure to check your desktop, as this is another common place for random photos or images to wind up.

Now back to uploading your image to use on MySpace: after selecting your photo with the Imagecross.com browser, you will see the name of the photo file appear just above the gray "upload" button.  Simply press this button to upload your picture and store it online in this location.  Once your picture is successfully uploaded on Imagecross.com, you will receive a simple code to insert the photo on your MySpace page.  Alternatively, you can also select a code to allow you to use your picture on FaceBook, eBay, various Internet forums and chat rooms, and even in your personal e-mail.

Most image hosting sites will allow pictures as large as 2.5 MBs, while some will allow photos up to 10 MBs.  Once your picture is properly uploaded and hosted online, you can use the upload picture code in many different ways, not just on your Myspace page.  For example, people who sell items on eBay can take a picture of the item and upload it a free image hosting site, allowing them to then use the upload picture code to insert a picture of the item on that eBay auction page.

Of course, there are many other free image hosting sites online, and they are normally quite easy to find with a quick search on Google or Yahoo.com.  These sites will host your photos online, allowing you to obtain an upload picture code to be used on MySpace and many other places online.
