How to put pictures in your posts!

[Dano]

OK! you want to show everyone your work, and the UBB image uploader is... okaaay but it puts your stuff in a thumbnail at the end, and maybe you want to save people a click, or talk about each piece individually, or just generally make it BIG AND EXCITING!

This is how you do it. First, select your image. Let's use Lenna for tradition's sake. this is 200x200 pixels, if possible try to keep your images size below 640x480 pixels so it'll fit on everybody's screen.

then, head to your image hosting site of choice. for this i am using www.tinypic.com because frankly i like it best. All others operate similarly though.

you will see this:


click "choose file" then find the picture you want to upload, select it and click OK. You can put some tags on if you want but i never bother. then hit upload.

it'll chug a bit, and then you'll see this:



click where i have the text highlighted, with the IMG tags, then right click, copy, and paste that line into your message on here and



voila =D i hope this helps, if you need anymore detail let me know!
