How to Post Pictures
For those of you who are wondering how to post pictures and images in their posts, here are the details.
1. Upload your picture to an image hosting site online. A quick and easy option is to go to www.tinypic.com for a single or even multiple images. Tinypic does not require any registration. For avid posters, other options include www.photobucket.com, www.imageshack.us, and/or www.flickr.com
Keep in mind that these sites require you to register.
2. Once you have uploaded your image, copy the image's URL. Most websites will provide you multiple strings of your photo's URL code. I prefer to select the code without any tags.
3. After you have copied the URL, come back to your thread/post and paste that URL link surrounded by [IMG] code at start and [/IMG] code at the end. It should look like this:
[IMG] http://www.YourPicture. com [/IMG]
Another option is to click the "Insert Image" icon above your post window (that picture with mountain landscape in it). It will open a dialogue box and you simply paste your copied URL in it. Click OK and you are done.
Hope this helps.
