Real talk:
How do I upload pictures on here? Keep in mind I'm a computer dunce. XD I'm guessing I put the picture on my computer first, then I use the "Insert Image" button and then...I'm not sure why pictures don't show up. I have something I want to show!
Here's the tutorial I gave my d-brother
:
You cannot upload photos directly to the forum post. What you need to do instead is upload an image to something else, like imgur, and get the image link for it and then insert it like thus:
[img]image.jpg[/img]
So yeah, step by step:
1. go to imgur.com
(optionally, you can sign in or create an account so that you can access your photo later. otherwise, you might not be able to find it later.)
2. click on the "upload images" button at the top of the page.
3. drag and drop the image onto that imgur page
4. click on "start upload"
5. on the right side of the page, it will say "Direct Link (email & IM)" with a link typed under it, usually ending with .jpg
6. Copy that link or click on the little icon next to that link to copy the link.
7. Go to your vgcollect forum post and click on the "insert image" icon (mona lisa icon).
8. paste in your link
9.? ? ?
10. profit!
