How To Load An Image To A ThreadThere are two ways:
1) You can link to the picture that is hosted elsewhere on the internet; or
2) You can upload it to our servers and we will host it for you.
Option 1:To link to a picture hosted elsewhere, just do the following:
When you are typing your post, you will see a row of editing buttons above the text window. The buttons, when pressed, will automatically insert the forum codes to complete the task. So,...
- When you come to the part of your post that you want the image to appear, just click the Img button, which will insert [img]and[/img] codes, keeping the cursor between them automatically.
- Just paste the URL (the address where the picture is located on the internet) between these two codes
- When you preview your post, you should see the image appear.
Option 2: To upload a picture to our servers:
- When you are posting a new topic or reply, there will be a section labeled 'Upload Attachment' below the window in which you are typing, click on Browse to navigate to the image file on your computer
- Click OK when you find it
