Thought I'd do a quick tutorial for any new folk's so here u are;

1 ) First of you need to register with a site that will host your pictures - I use Photobucket - this site is free and very easy to use, but there are other free sites if you ask around.

2 ) Once registered and logged in click on the CHOOSE button and search for the picture file on your PC. Once found click OK then click on UPLOAD

3 ) If you scroll down after uploading you should find the image further down the page. Under the image there should be 4 box's of text labelled 'Email & IM', 'Direct Link', 'HTML Tag' and 'IMG Code'. The one labelled 'IMG Code' is what you need.

4 ) Highlight all the text in the box by right-clicking with your mouse and go to copy in the menu that's brought up and click it.

5 ) Next you need to go to the post that you want to display the picture in.

6 ) Right click in the post at the position you want the picture to appear at, and select PASTE

7 ) The IMG code should now have been inserted for you.

8 ) Finish post and click preview to check its worked   Grin   Grin   Grin   Grin

I hope this will help you all in getting loads of pics into your threads.

It is also worth remembering that this kind of facility has many other uses other than for forums such as this - for one thing it's a very handy way to make sure you don't lose those valuable pictures when your computer decides to fry itself.


trust me its not that hard, if i can do it any1 can lol

lookin at the post i think there is a problem with the [img]http://tabs on the 1st picture as the second 1 is spot on

go back to the post an click on modify then just redo the picture that isnt displaying i'm sure u are doin it right an it was just a simple mistake

before u post make sure that u have [img] before the URL (the bit u copied an pasted) and [img] (this should have a / before the img ) after it
