You can generate the code here http://www.sirimo.co.uk/istockphoto/ubbgen.html (http://www.sirimo.co.uk/istockphoto/ubbgen.html)

Once you have generated and added to your description just delete the return between each entry and add a space.

you can also try to build the table in a forum post.  there are buttons here to make figuring out the code easier.

pic1	pic2	pic3
pic1 on the next row	pic2 ditto	pic3 test test
pic1	pic2	pic3

I used this code

Code: [Select]

[table]
[tr]
[td]pic1[/td]
[td]pic2[/td]
[td]pic3[/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]pic1 on the next row[/td]
[td]pic2 ditto[/td]
[td]pic3 test test[/td]
[/tr][tr]
[td]pic1[/td]
[td]pic2[/td]
[td]pic3[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

I would highly recommend using DeepMeta, www.deepmeta.com (http://www.deepmeta.com). Its compatible with Mac or PC.

It works by displaying every image online @ istock and allows you to select and link images with one click. I just completed about 254 images, attaching thumbnail links and it took 15 minutes.

This is how it should look, http://www.istockphoto.com/file_closeup.php?id=10234097 (http://www.istockphoto.com/file_closeup.php?id=10234097)

Hope that helps!

Good info. I did most of mine as lightboxes, but having direct links to the images is nice too.
