Need help with uploading images

Post by Gergely »

Here is my first and latest attempt at making an URL for my uploaded image.
viewtopic.php?f=47&t=34471
It dosen't work does it?

Now I ask the question: How can I get an image to show up in general?

Image files end on .png or .jpg.

What you did posted was simply the google drive link to the image.

You might want to use picture uploaders like imgur instead, they support giving out the picture in the correct format.
Imgur links look like this by default: http://imgur.com/97vFJT7 - this is the link to the imgur post.
You can edit the link to get the image link directly to make it look like this: http://i.imgur.com/97vFJT7.png

This will result in a forum friendly image link.

If you don't want to, or can't use an imagehoster you can also directly attach images to your post.

When creating a new post simply click on 'Upload attachment' and upload your image file.

By default it will display all attached images at the end of your post. If you want to add the image in the middle of your post (as I've done here) then put the cursor at the desired position in the textfield and click the 'Place inline' button next to the uploaded picture.
