How to post an image

[BendtheBar]

There are three ways to post images:

1) Hotlinking.

2) Uploading from your PC.

3) Importing and uploading an image from another website.

I will explain how to do each.

Hotlinking

1) Find an image from the web you like.

2) Right click on the image and "Copy link location."

3) Click on the "insert image" icon in the tool bar: =>

4) Paste the image link into the popup window.

5) Click "ok".

Submit your post.

NOTE: Some websites will not allow you to hotlink, so do not be surprised if you do everything correctly and no image appears.

Bumping.

After you upload you still have to copy the URL and paste it into a post to get the image to show up as a large size. All uploading does is attach an image to a post. To get it to show full size you have to right click on the image in the attachments window, copy it's URL, and past it as detailed above.
