Guide: How to post an image

[david 7971]

So, let's say you have an image (like a .png file). Now how do you share it with the world? That's what I'm going to show you!

 

Step 1:

Upload the image to a image sharing site.

 

I strongly recommend using Imgur for this: http://imgur.com/

Click upload images, then browse your computer to select an image (or several) from your hard drive, then click "Start upload". You don't even need an account for this, isn't imgur wonderful?

 

 

Step 2:

Once it's uploaded, you need to get the image URL. It is found below "BBCode (message boards & forums)".

 

Click on it and copy (Ctrl+C)

 

 

Step 3:

Now that you have the image URL, just put it in your post by pasting in the correct spot (Ctrl+V). The image will appear when previewing or submitting your post.
