There are two different ways to post, you can link an image or upload the image to our server.

**Warning** If you choose to upload images, you are limited on space! Each user only gets a few megs of space, then the forum runs out of room for you. So, keep reading, there's a way around it if you don't want to delete the pics you've already posted.

How to Upload an Image

1. Start a post and click on the Choose File button below the post.
2. In the window that pops up, go to your picture, click on Open, then click on Submit.
3. Yay!

Your picture will be added to your post as an attachment with a tiny little picture next to it. Anyone who clicks on it will download it and be able to see the whole thing.

Oh no! I'm out of room and can't upload any more? What do I do??

or

That picture is tiny! I want the whole thing to show!

Here's how to fix it!
There's a great space on the web for uploading pictures, and they love it when you do. It's called Imgur, and it's free. You can get there by going to https://imgur.com and then sign up for an account and upload to your heart's content.

1. Once you have your account set up, click on the Images button in the upper right hand corner.
2. Now, click on the Computer button in the upper right hand corner, choose your picture, and open it.
Grats!! Now you can link up your picture anywhere - just click on it and copy the links on the right!
3. To post your picture here, click on the picture and copy the link under Direct Link (email & IM).
4. Paste or type that link in to the Insert an Image box in your post. It's in the upper left hand corner.

Woo hoo!
