IMAGE SHACK METHOD
A quick guide to post pictures on this or any internet forum.
You need to upload your chosen picture onto an image hosting site, like http://imageshack.us/
There are others, just search "Image Hosting website".
Click "browse" and select the picture you want, i've chosen a photo of my nice clean car.
You also have the option to resize the image, the best size for forums is 600x480.
Then click "upload Now". Wait for the image to upload, may take 10-60 seconds depending on internet speed or image size.
Once uploaded this screen will appear.
Then highlight the "direct link" and copy the link (ctrl + C), click "Img" tab just below the thread subject bar and you should see (only without the fullstop in the middle) and paste (ctrl + V) your link in between
When writing your post you won't see the photo, what you will see is the written link like this.
So click the "Preview" tab before you submit to make sure everything looks right.
The end result.
PHOTOBUCKET METHOD
