After noticing a few people don't know how to post pics up on other sections other than 'Member's Aquarium and Fish Pictures' I looked around for an article explaining how to do it, but I couldn't find one so here's one. I'm sorry if it's already been written.
First you need to get your image uploaded somewhere. http
/photobucket.com & http/www.imageshack.us are very popular. In this very basic tutorial we're going to look at hosting with photobucket.com.
Step 1: Go to http/photobucket.com and you should see a big red button labelled 'Register Now'. Click it, and another page should load with a box for your username and password. Fill in those details and click the -'->Next Step' button at the bottom right of the page.
Step 2: Now here's the last step of the registration. Fill in your details, check the box 'I agree to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy' if you agree. Then click 'Done'.
Step 3: The next page should have this 'Thanks for registering, begin uploading here!' If not, then you've screwed up somewhere!
In the middle of the page should be a box with the heading 'Choose an image (or a video)' and under it and white box with 'Browse' to the side. Click the 'Browse' button and choose the image you want to upload from your computer. Then click 'Upload' you then have the option to enter a title for your image.
Step 4: Now you have your image uploaded you can add it to your post on the forums. To do this you need to copy and paste the 'URL Link' then go into your new post and click the tree thing.
Then paste the link into the box provided, click OK and weird little thing should appear. But don't worry when you preview or post your post then the image should show :D

Hopefully that helps a few people out. If I've made some errors like spelling and grammar or even content, please PM me. Also people might have trouble with file sizes and image sizes. If so, then you can use this article to help [url="http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=114969"]http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=114969[/url]
