I need to know how to post art work in the forums!
 
Well I havent posted any pictures yet so far in this forum And I have been in this forum for a while. I really want show some pictures and art work that I have done. And I can't because I just don't know how to do it. I know I have asked a question about this a while back but I still don't understand how to post pictures. Do you click on image? And how do you get your picture to show up on the screen. I tried to take a photogragh of something. Do you scan it into your Computer? I am just woundering how to get the picture on the screen like art work. Please tell me how and I will try to show you guys some pretty cool stuff. Does your picture have to have a certain web address to it? Someone please explain this to me in simplier terms. I am trying to figure this out and it has been nagging at me for the longest time. Thank you

This discussion belongs in Off topic.

You first need to upload them to a webspace. You know, like uploading websites.

After that, you need the url of the picture. To get it, right click on the pic, select properties, and have a looke at the info. Somewhere should be: URL : [url="http://[url]"]http://
Copy the url.

Then, go visit the forums and use the Image UBB code to show it. That code is:

(Remove the asterisks = *)

[img*]URL[/i*mg]

At the place of URL, you copy the picture URL. NOTE: The http:// part is REQUIRED!

For example, here you see the URL of a pic of a Rayman fansite: http://www.rayman.xnapster.com/magician2.gif

And now, I'm going use the code:

http://www.rayman.xnapster.com/magician2.gif

Nice pic, not?

Thanks Cool Paramite I aprecieate it. But I think I am going to eather create my own website or an e-mail address where I can have those pictures and others will be welcome to post pictures of their own and we could talk about them. But I don't quite know what I am going to do yet but I will soon.

Huh? I never suggested that you should put it on someone else's site. I just took that Rayman fansite pic as an example. Anyway, I'm glad I could help you.

You know, there was a time that I was a stupid with posting pictures. Thanks to Gluk Schmuk for helping me out!
