I tend to use Photobucket to host pics on the forum, it’s quick and easy and I’ve never had any problem with it.
– You need to create an account at the above site, this just requires an email address and the usual name/date of birth.
– Once joined there is an upload box at the top of the page where you can browse for the files on your PC. Once you choose these they are up loaded automatically.
– Your Photobucket album shows thumbnails of the images uploaded, clicking on a thumbnail will open a larger version of the picture.
– On this screen there is a box titled ‘Image link code’, for the forum simply click on the address in the ‘IMG code’ box. This address should copy automatically but if not simply press ctrl+c to copy it.
– There is no need to add the ‘Img’ tags in your forum post just paste (ctrl+v) the address straight in and you’re done.
Personally I tend to try and make my pictures no wider than 800 pixels for forums as it just helps them sit better on the screen, this isn’t essential though.
