Adding Images to Your Posts As Attachments

[Gaussian]

With the recent forum software upgrades, it is now easy to attach images and insert them into posts, and it can accommodate even very large image files.

Adding images this way will keep them on our server and insure that they are not deleted by third part image hosts.

To attach an image and insert it into your post just use the Advanced mode (if you are replying... don't use Quick Reply) and scroll down to the button Manage Attachments, then click on Add Files and select your images, upload them, and then you can insert them into posts at any time.

You can upload JPG's up to 1920x1280 pixels.

Inserting the images into your post gives you thumbnails like this:

The other method of adding images to your posts is to upload them to a third party image host.

The one I reccomend, because it is very fast adn easy to use is IMGUR.

After you upload your image there just copy the "Message Boards" code and paste it into your post.

The code should look something like this:

You can also click on the "Insert Image" icon on the tool bar above.

Also, Gaussian, maybe we should add one small detail about having to have so many post's to be able to embed an image. After that, that is a pretty thorough guide. I will use it in my Sig also..

You can also right click on most images on the internet and click "Copy Image Url" and then use the [img] link here [ /img] tags to embed them.

No such post count requirement exists.

So you can embed photo's as a new member? From other photo hosting websites?

Type in the text or copy and paste, then upload the images one at a time.
