Hi to all, this issue seems to come up from time-to-time, and it's not really explained in the FAQ either, so I understand it can be sometimes difficult to do for a new member, specially if that same member is generally new to online forums. [TUT] How To Post Pictures & Videos On Forums 3176102109

So lets see a couple of ways that you can share your awesome photos and videos here.

Posting pictures

Method 1 : Using external hosting service

If you have your pictures already uploaded to an external hosting service, such as Photobucket or Imageshack, the process is simple:

Step 1:

Press the "Image" button in the format bar and insert the URL of your image:

alternatively, you may include the image tags manually in the following format:

[IMG*] image url [/IMG*] (Removing *)



Method 2 : Uploading pictures to ImgServ hosti within the forum

If you do not wish to use an external host, as explained in the previous method, you may upload your pictures directly within your post. This method uses the Servimg host and does not require you to have a registration in an external site.

Step 1:

Press the "Host an image" button in the format bar and choose the image you want to upload:
