(Its free, they don't want you to help finance the Nigerian Royal Family, and it has the benefit of being an "offsite" storage library of your images.)

2. Upload the images you want to use in your posts.

3. Once uploaded, put your cursor over the image you want to use, a la...

pic1.jpg

and you will see four options become highlighted for your use.

4. Click on the bottom one: "IMG Code" and you will see the box change to "copied".

5. Go to your post/reply/PM etc and simply paste directly into the open post text area.

6. Shazam!

NB: There are other ways to do this, using the "DIRECT LINK" option, and then the "insert picture" icon etc, and any way you can get this to work is the best way, however above might be the simplest.

Good Luck Comrades, please ask any further questions below in this post so others can also learn from our errr... endeavours! ;)

Click this and then you are able to "Choose File", and then once selected, "Attach this file". The file must be less than 2Mb in size.

This will attach a thumbnail of your picture file, and once your post is viewed, and the image clicked on, it will open to full size.

Further advise is available just below in "Help with Attaching Files".

If you store your image files online (Photobucket/Picasa etc) you can copy the link and insert directly into the topic via a custom button above the text area - picture frame icon.

I used to have to 'remove' the hyperlink before I could do it, but it seems that option is gone

Thanks
Russ

How to add a Gallery of images to a post.
 
1) Create an account on Imgur (pronounced Imager)
2) Upload your photos to imgur and make sure you tick the 'Group images into an album' checkbox or alternately after uploading the images, click gallery, click new gallery and choose the images you want to add to it.
3) Once the gallery is created copy the URL from the gallery
4) Now on PFA create your post and in your forum post, type [imgur], then paste the URL (CTRL+V), and then type [/imgur]
Alternately click the Special BB Code button 3rd from the left across the top of the new post editor, select the Media tag in the drop down list and past the link to your Imgur gallery in there.
Either method will work.
5) You will now have a gallery of images embedded into your post like below

Cheers Al

However I get this message on my posts: 'Used 392.51K of your 500K global upload quota (Max. single file size: 107.49K)'

Does this mean I am only allowed to upload 500K total in my PFA lifetime? The balance available never seems to decrease?

Any help appreciated.
