If you want to post images on this forum, please make sure the images do not stretch the forum layout.

Tip
If you would like to upload an image and post it on the forum, http://imageshack.us/ is a helpful free tool to host your images.

When using ImageShack please post the " Thumbnail for forums (1)" link that imageshack provides when you have uploaded your images that are larger than 400px width.

If you would like to post a big image with ImageShack, please select "Image Resize - 640 x 480 and use "Hotlink for forums (1)"

How do I hotlink to an image? I tried using HTML, but that code doesn't work?

What format do I use to show the image in my posts?

I figured out how to post a photo in the forums.

First, you have to upload your photo to a photo sharing site like Flickr.

Once you know the URL for your photo, here is how you format the code to include a photo:

If you notice, there is a button above the reply box that is called, "Img". If you push that button, it will automatically put the code into your reply form.

Yup.
I just normally manually type it in or photobucket already supplies the link with the bbcode.
