Had a few people ask me how to use this website to post your pictures so I thought I would just start a new thread for it.
- First off, make sure you have the picture you want to use from your camera or screenshot or drawing or whatever it is you want to share. I like to save mine on my desktop.
- Next, go to the website: http://imgur.com/.
- In the upper left hand corner, click on the green button. Click on the words that says "New Post" instead of the little arrow pointing down.
- It will pop up a little frame that says you can browse your computer or drag images here.
- I like to drag the image from my desktop over to the website window inside the little box. Once you do that, it shows you a picture of what you just uploaded and some options.
- You may have to hold your mouse over top of the picture you just uploaded to get the options to pop up but when they do, you want to click on the little arrow pointing down, right next to the word "Copy" in the upper right hand corner. This brings down a little menu with 4 options. Click on the second one that says "Get Share Links"
- This brings up something that looks like this:
- Click on the Blue/Purple button that says copy in the bottom left hand corner under BBCode (Forums). That will actually copy the link for you.
- Last thing you have to do is on the onepocket.org forums, whereever you want the picture to appear, just paste the link you copied. You can do that by either using the keyboard shortcut: CTRL + V or right click and choose Paste.
Walla! Thats all there is to it. It may seem like a lot of steps but once you do it a few times it gets pretty fast and easy.
The reason I like it so much is its free, unlimited and I don't have to register a new account to upload
