I can't post pictures of my mod/map thing?

Post by Zapattack1234 »

Hello, my recently announced mod, Slenderfront, needs pictures to be able to become an unlocked topic, but honestly I don't know how to post a picture on here because I always get a "too big" error or something. Anyone know how to post a picture successfully? I feel like such a noob :funny2:

First click on the "Img" button which is on top of the main box of text then copy the location
of the image you want to use (I don't think you can use them directly from your computer
so you'll have to upload them to one of those online image sites) and paste it inside the
brackets example:
"[img]IMAGE_LOCATION[/img]"

Doesn't that mean your post has too many characters?

Pretty sure he means the file size is too big. You have to convert the original screenshot to a .jpg or a .png. Both of those types of images are compressed, meaning smaller file size.

I'm pretty sure that's the error one get's upon trying to attach files to posts. You need to use a service such as Dropbox or ImageShack.
