Because these forums – along with all other forums – do not permit members to directly copy and paste images into posts, it is necessary to acquire a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) for your images.
This can easily be achieved by setting up an online image gallery. These forums will then connect to your individual URLs and display any images you wish to share.
There are many free sites where you can set up an online gallery. One such site which we highly recommend and have found very compatible with these forums is www.picturetrail.com
We suggest that you visit this site (or similar), sign up as a free member, upload any images you wish to post on these forums and set up an album. If you are unsure as to how to do this on “Picture Trail” we suggest you follow the “Help” section included (www.picturetrail.com/help) – this provides a comprehensive guide as to how use this service.
Once your images are uploaded to the “Picture Trail” website, all you need to do is click on “Image URLs” as shown below:

The URL for the image you wish to display in your post on these forums will appear in the field as highlighted below:

We know that this may appear a little complicated at a first glance, but once familiar with the procedure it is a very simple way in which to brighten up your posts – especially in reference to the “Art Work” section of these forums.
All we ask is that you try to not make your image file sizes excessively large as this will cause these forums to slow up for those using slow connection methods to the internet.
We hope this helps, if not then please don’t hesitate to contact us.
