How to add an image

A lot of people have been asking about this one, so here it is. There are 2 ways to add images on this forum.

The first is as follows:

1. Search for the image link you want to use from the web. Here, I went to Google and searched for cake.

2. Click on the images tab

Image

3. Pick an image, right click on the image and choose copy image address

Image

4. Next, click on the image icon in your post or reply:

Image

5. A tag will show up (the img). Paste your link in here. You can do this by hitting the ctrl and v button at the same time. You can also right click and hit paste.

- It's important that the brackets of surrounding the tag are there. Make sure you don't delete those on accident.

Code: Select all

[img] Your Link Goes here [/img]
6. You can hit the Preview button to see if your image will post correctly

NOTE: If you are using quick reply, you will have to type the Image tags

Now let's have some cake!

Image

Way two is to use images from your computer.

1. Click on the Attachments tab.

Image

2. Then click Add Files and upload the pic you want to use

----------------

What if I just want to link something quicker?

IMGUR is a great resource for uploading images you want to use fast. https://imgur.com/

1. Click on New Post at the top left corner of the website

Image

2. Upload your picture by clicking Browse

Image

3. Your image will pop up and a code will be included: Simply copy this code and add it the same way as the first method.

I have no problem posting a picture or gif in a post but can’t seem to make it work in PM. It shows it uploading and then the status shows a yellow triangle sign with ! In it.

I’ve been having trouble adjusting the image size requirements for pm’s. The issue is that images are coming up too big so I’m working on coming up with a solution for that.
