Posting an Image with VBBS

[redm]

I got a PM about how to post external images or images with links. I figured I would just post more info for everyone. I took a few screenshots with MediaFire express that should clear things up for anyone who needs it.


















You can upload images to any number of services like Photobucket or MediaFire. You can also attach images, but I think you need to be an aficionado? (Can anyone confirm)

I uploaded the pictures above using MediaFire express, a free tool for quickly uploading files.

With the MediaFire embed code, by default, it links to a full version of the image (and shows other images in the folder/gallery)



When you get a link, click the view link so you can get to the sharing options.







If anything isnt clear, let me know and I'll update this.


Alternatively, if you dont want to install a desktop tool, you can upload an image to a web service through the web interface, like Photobucket, MediaFire, Imgur etc. On MediaFire, you can just create a folder and drag and drop the image into the web browser.
