Uploading/Posting Pictures

Post by jam_rs »

First off thankyou for all of your photos!

For those of you that dont know how to upload pictures, heres how too.

One little rule, please try to ensure your picture is not too big, as this can make it difficult view the picture for some users. IE it can take up the whole screen!
800x600 Pixel is an ideal image size for most forums.

First option

First option is to upload via the box below where you enter your post, simply click browse, navigate to your picture, add a comment if desired and click add the file. However you are limited too 3 attachments per post. (this is to reduce the amount of load there is on the server)

Second option - Prefered

Second and prefered option is use a image hosting site. My preffered site is http://www.imageshack.us (and this short tutorial shows how the imageshack site works) however many people use http://www.photobucket.com

Imageshack you currently do not have to create an account for, however it is a good idea to so that you can manage your images.

Once you have uploaded you will see this screen:

Now, to transfer that over to a forum like this, all you have to do is click on the line of text that says "Forum Code" or "Forum Thumbnail" and copy and paste it over to your post, so you will have something like:

You can remove the bit that says uploaded by imageshack (not shown above)

To check it's worked, click on your preview button at the bottom of the post next to submit, and FiestaMk7s forum will show you what it will look like, prior to posting.

Hope this helps someone.

If this doesn't make sense, please tell me!
