How To Post Image (picture In Forums)

[IndominusRex 13]

Many people are asking how to post image, picture, or screenshot in forums.. So I am planning to make one tutorial for how to post it in forums.

Just follow the steps... Just ask me when you don't understand a certain step..

First, you need to register either Photo Bucket or Image Shack. These two websites are helpful. You have to register on Photo Bucket while Imageshack can be used whitout an account (Both are free)

After registering, you can upload your picture/image into your account...

When you're done uploading, Image Shack and Photobucket provide a direct link for your image on the internet.. You use that link to post here...

Put your image's dirrect link just like this format when you type in forums..

[IMG=YOUR DIRECT LINK SHOULD BE HERE]

Or you can also click the forums' IMG guide button, then paste your link.

How to take screenshot?

Press Print Screen key near the F12 and Scroll Lock key when you like to take the screenshot of your current screen (Look at your monitor!). Go to Paint and Click edit then paste. Go to File and click Save As... Remember to save your image with PNG or JPEG as File type... I recommend PNG image format, because it has a good size and good quality.... Save your work!

Note: You must know how to use Photobuket/imagshack

Here are quick steps:

1. Press "Print Screen" on your keyboard if you wish to get the current screenshot.

2. Go to desktop and open Paint Program.

3. Go to Edit and click paste.

4. Go to File and click save or save as...

5. Name your file and save as JPEG or PNG (if you want better quality).

6. Register at PhotoBucket or use just use http://imageshack.us

7. Upload your screenshot

8. Copy the link of your image and put it here in forums, remember to put the code like this

[IMG=Your direct image link here]

9. POST IT!!

---------------ANOTHER STEPS BY RUNDOWN-------------

Here's the steps to put screenshots into posts, they have been said a couple times by other people but I will say them again just for you.

1. Click the "PrtScrn" button on the keyboard to take a screenshot, should be around the "Delete" button somewheres

2. Minimize BR (Tab+Ctrl+Alt) and open paint

3. Click "Ctrl+V" and hold it down to paste the screenshot, you will have to left click the mouse to paste it once you have clicked "Ctrl+V" and held it down

4. Save the screenshot as JPEG.

5. Go to imageshack.us

6. Once there, click upload: file

7. Then browse for your screenshot that you saved

8. Then click the resize image box and make it for message boards

9. Then click host it

10. Then copy the direct link to the image and post it in the forums

To post it in the forums is quick and easy

1. When you are adding your reply click the "IMG" tab, it should be next to the "http://" and "@" tabs

2. Then paste the direct link to image you copied in the space provided

3. Then click OK

4. Then click Add Reply and there's your posted screenshots

Went into every detail so it's step by step, something directions don't always give you.

Like back-up directions, nice

Don't think we will need them though, your directions are pretty self forward.

[IndominusRex 13]

Anymore website that host image for free?

[Sinophile 41]

[IndominusRex 13]

Sometimes you're running out of bandwidth

[Guest Aramid]

THANKS! for sharing your knowledge Ben and rundown... I learned a lot in here...you say you are 17? you know a lot for a 17 year old.... I guess you pay attention to your lessons

[IndominusRex 13]

Yes I just turn 17... Hehe... Many people told me that I am so smart.. I got a grade of A and A+ sometimes A- for all of my courses.. My lowest grade as I remember when I was in 6th grade is B+. I am the only student in Sci-Integrated class and Geometry that has an A and the rest of my classmate got C, D and F -

I don't have Algebra 1 class ever but I can still pass Geometry class with a grade of A. Also, I am a beginner programmer, I learned those from my brother. I am also a Magician in may school, they pay me to do my magic's trick.. hehe So if you need some help, just asks me, If I know, I will answer your question. My homework always done before I play Battle realms.

Wow! you are really smart. What is your IQ? are you superior, above average or genious? I am not as amart as you....I am top 1 in our class but I am not in the pilot section hehehe....

[IndominusRex 13]

Hehe... I am also the top 1 in my class, they told me a genius, but whatever.. ahihi.. I forgot my IQ, I have a 200+ before as I remember, I will take it again.. ahihi

Edited May 18, 2006 by BenEducationNotice

[Guest Aramid]

200? I believe the ceiling mark is 200 or 180... 140 is genious and 100 is above average or superior.... hehehe.... I take some IQ test in some websites and I am surprised on the results...

[IndominusRex 13]

Because I think very fast hehe... I dont have US History Class But I know some of it by the internet.. I often take my time to read Wikipedia hehe..

[Guest Aramid]

wow... I guess you are one of the students who even correct their teachers when they commit mistakes. You must be a distant relative of einstein or something...hehehe... I will beat you in the post count someday...

[IndominusRex 13]

Hehe, not really... But I did correct my teachers about Parts of the Circles and a trapazoid..

[Guest Aramid]

I am the silent student in school. Hey! I guess you have a girlfriend.... with that intelligence I am sure some girls would like it...hehehe....

[IndominusRex 13]

Hehehe.. I don't have a girlfriend yet.. I never have a girlfriend.. It's not that they don't like me, but I just simply listen to my mom that I cannot have a girlfriend until I'm 20. So I just give all of my attention to my study first.. Also they love my magic..
