Title: How to upload pictures to ImageShack and post them on forums
Post by: Mark David on March 01, 2007, 02:15:36 PM
Hi,

Many people have been asking me how to put pictures on this forum. It is very easy to put pictures on the forums.

One way is by attaching the picture to the post (upto 1 MB). This can be done by clicking the + sign next to additional options and adding attachments.

The second (RECOMMENDED) way is by uploading the picture to imageshack and putting it in the post via bbcode. It is very easy and I will describe the procedure here -

1) Go to www.imageshack.us

2) Click on browse select the picture and click on the "host it" button

3) Select the last option named  "Direct link to image" as marked in the picture below -  (The option to choose is circled in the picture attached below)

4) Right click and click copy. Then in the post you are making, rightclick and click paste.

5) You have to put image tags around the link to the image. This can be done by selecting/marking the image link and clicking on the image button as illustrated in the picture below.

Finally it would look something like this -

Code:

Note the starting img tag before and the closing img tag after the link.

Your done, if you have any questions/queries then reply below!
