Posting Images

[asrodrig]

Hey all, since there seems to be a little confusion on how to post up pictures, I thought I'd make this brief little tutorial.

You will need, of course, a picture. This one seems about right.



The next step is to upload your picture onto an image hosting site. I use photobucket, but there are many others. You'll see this as it's uploading:



And then you'll be redirected to this screen.



Once you're all done here, oh look! There's our image! Most forums support BBCode, but not here on Lustria-Online, so here's where it gets tricky. Instead of using the code, you have to first select the code in the 'Direct Link' box.

Then copy and paste it here.

Then hit this button.

And voila! You have an image!

Nice, now all we need to do is get people to read them before asking. Maybe sticky them?

 

[asrodrig]

I asked Sammy to do it, because I can't figure out how to.

 

[Sammy the Squib]

nice tut, sticky the thread by choosing 'change to sticky' in the quick mod drop down tools just below the thread

Thats what I would have thought as well, but I looked in the mod options when I first read the thread and it isn't there. Are we enabled to be able to sticky posts?

@asrodrig, every time I scroll down the thread I see the image of the forum and think I have reached the bottom.

Is this the same method for those of us who use a tablet only?

 

[rychek]

Yep. Tablet, phone, computer, whathaveyou, the basic principles/process is the same.
