Hello!
Many people ask how to post pictures on the forums. Like tankerbuilder... Well I thought I'll take some time to show you.
Let's start with posting a new topic or just replying in an existing topic. A page opens that should have a portion that looks like that:
Click on the icon pointed by the red arrow. A pop up opens, that should look like this:
Now you should put an address of the picture that's already on the Internet in the first field, pointed to by the red arrow. That's right, the picture should already be on the Internet before you can post it on these forums, you can't upload it directly from your computer, phone or what do you prefer to use. The most popular way to deal with it is to use some photo hosting service, like photobucket. Other sites that can put your photo on the Internet are listed here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_image-sharing_websites
Once you have the photo uploaded, you need to determine it's adress or URL. On photobucket you find in the box pointed by the red arrow:
You can also get an adress/URL of almost any picture on the net by looking at your browser's address bar:
Copy the address/URL and put it in the box like shown below. You might add a comment, but it's optional. You might add the dimensions to tell the forums how big you want the picture to appear, but I recommend leaving them blank, in this case the forums will fit the pictures to the available width and kep all the pics you post this way uniformly wide:
Now click OK and the picture will appear in the reply window. If it's big, you will only see the corner of it:
After you hit the "Post" button, the picture will rescale, unless you set the dimensions to some value that doesn't fit on the screen (I haven't seen it NOT rescale though):
And that would do it actually... I know - you probably have a lot of questions - please put them in the comments below. I hope this SBS helps you, thanks for reading and have a nice day
