How to post a picture as part of your message?

[Ayebee123]

I'm trying to put a photo in a topic, but I don't know how. And not for people to install, so I could put text after it. Kinda like this post did: https://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=311128.0

You need to upload the image to an image host like imgur. Most of them will have a share button that will give you BBC to copy into your message. If they don't, get the direct link to the image by opening it in a new tab and copying the url, and then paste it into image tags you get from pressing the leftmost bottom button in the post screen.

This one. Quote this post so you can see how it looks when you've done it.

then once the image is uploaded, right click and select "Copy Image Location" then paste it in between an [img]  [/img] tag

If the image is too large (i.e. it stretches the page and makes the horizontal scrollbar appear), be sure to change the image's size by using the "width" option: [img width=800]image url here[/img]

if it's a large image use [img width=x][/img] to change the width of it so the page doesn't stretch

pretty sure the forums automatically apply a max-width of 1000 to all linked images

Code: [Select]

don't think it was ever like that, maybe ur just thinking that the max width u can set for an image is 1000

I'm pretty sure that's a greasemonkey script

quoting someone shows you all their formatting tags, for future reference, just in case you want to know how someone does something else like ^superscript or _subscript or how to write a r^ainbow

Sadly this doesn't work on old threads because it just says "thread too old", you can't even quote them into other threads and it sucks when you want to, say, quote the rules and link back properly.
