Title: posting pictures in forums?
Post by: LazerusRex on August 05, 2013, 08:43:22 AM
This has probably been asked before, and I feel kinda stupid for asking, but I can't figure out how to post pictures in the forums... Help?

You have to use tags, and in-between the tags you enter a url of where your image is.

The tags you use are [img*] [/img*] - You will need to remove the *.

Alternatively there's a button, just above the smiley faces, the furthest to the left. Scrolling over it, it will say, 'Insert Image'. This will automatically make the the tags appear, you just need to paste in the url of where your image is.

Furthermore, the url link usually has .jpg   .png   .gif at the end

If you are wanting to upload a image, that's different, but very straight forward.

You need to use an image hosting site like photobucket or imageshack, there are lots of others. They're free and easy to set up. Hugs, Devlyn
