Place images in your post.

[kanga]

You are competing with the best artist in the world so we want you to get as much attention and aid as you can here.

Don't send people offsite to view images as they are busy and will look at other threads instead. You can enter respectable urls in your signature. I am leaving this sticky open so you can ask questions if you are having trouble with the instructions. I or other members will try to help you.

Where the image is hosted right click on it and select 'view image info'.


In the Internet Explorer browser it is the same process except the menu item is called properties in the resulting popup, and the address can be found behind Address (URL):


Copy the url/link from the info popup. You can see the web address behind the heading Location:


Click in the body of your post where you want the image to appear. Then click on the 'insert image' button above your post dialog.


When the 'enter url' dialog appears paste the address you copied in step 2.


Make sure there is one http:// instead of none or two. The image should now appear in the body of your post. If the image doesn't appear click on preview post to see it.

To insert images manually you can use BBcode image tags. Click in the body of the post area where you want the image to appear and use the tags below. Insert your own image address where you see http://
