If the image you want to insert is online, put its URL in image tags. Either <img src="URL" /> or [IMG]URL[/IMG]. If the image is on your computer, you have ‘Go Advanced’ and follow the instructions to ‘Browse’ your computer for the image and upload them onto the forums as an attachment that will show up in your post. Hope this helps.

but i dont know what is url and attachment...

Every image posted on the Internet has a unique URL (or, more correctly, URI) that is esentially an address that describes where it can be found. If the image you want to post is already on the Internet, right click on it and select ‘View image’. The URI in your browser’s address bar will now be the URI of the image. Copy/paste that into your message, and surround it with the right code.

Attachments I can’t really explain. It tells you how to do it, step by step.

Attachments are when you have an image file on your computer and upload it to the forums. You do that through the New Reply/Advanced Reply screen.

AlienMagi, please don’t double post. It artificially increases your post count and is disorienting for people to read. To amend/addend your messages, click the EDIT button that’s at the bottom of each of your posts.

AlienMagi, please don’t double post.

He may double post a lot but he hasn't in this thread so that post was unnecessarily in the wrong thread which is just as bad as double posting.

I use image shack for my pictures. Go to http://imageshack.us and create an account. Then using the same address you can upload pictures onto it up to 1.5 meg. After you upload a picture find the box with include details written above it and untick it. Then copy the URL for Hotlink For Forums to where you want the picture to be shown on your post.

His double posts were edited together into a single one.

I normally don’t do that if I’ve given a public caution on the matter, because it makes me look as though I’m complaining about nothing. So thanks, whoever did that.

I didn't know you could do that. Makes sense now. I take it I can put you down as the third MOD that hates me then?

No problem

I wouldn't if I were you. Making yourself the victim rarely earns you anything more than more victimising. Just wait until Hobo see this.
