Hi All,
I'm building Streetfghter at the moment and was hoping to post some pictures as it progresses. Problem is I don't know how. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Hi Paul
You can't upload images to the site server, instead you have to use a mirror site. Go to www.photobucket.com and create an account. Then you can upload pictures there.
When you've done that you can look below each image (at Photobucket that is) and you'll find rectangular boxes wich read "url" "tag" and "img" copy all of the text in the "img"-box and then paste that text into your Finescale forum message. The finescale server will get the picture from photobucket and show it in your message. The link to your picture will look something like this, except that the first IMG-letters also will be set in between brackets.
IMG http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v239/joelwideqvist/mc-banner.gif [/IMG]
One thing to remember when using this technique is that when the pictures are removed from Photobucket they will no longer be visible in the messages where you've posted them, only thing that will show are red X:s . Something you see a lot of in older messages.
Good luck
Joel
