Posting pictures and links
Here is a list of a few commonly asked questions about the forum, and it's functionality.
First off....posting a picture. For starters, a picture has to be hosted to the internet somewhere. I can't tell you how often I see img tags formatted correctly, but directed to something like "C:/My Documents/Xmod stuff/sweet skyline 1.jpg" Your picture must use a link like this: Code:
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c108/Numbchux/PICT2437.jpg any URL that ends in .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, etc. can be used, it doesn't necessarily have to be hosted in your own account. If you are using photobucket, log in to your account (or create one...if you don't already have one...don't worry, it's free), and you'll see a place to enter the location of your picture (much like the C:/My Documents... link above) with a "Browse" button next to it. Click the Browse button, find your pic, and then click ok. Your screen should look something like this: Then click "Upload" Once the image has uploaded, you will see a little preview of it displayed below. Copy the entire contents of the "URL Link" box: now, go to the thread that you want to post in, and click "Post New Thread" or "Post Reply". you will see a tool bar like this above your text editing window: click the Insert Image button (circled in Red). then Paste your Link into the window that pops up: And you should see something like this: HTML Code:
