Default How To Embed Photos

There seems to have been a lot of people lately asking how to directly embed photos onto the site (i.e. So that the picture appears in your post, rather than a link to the photo), without using an image hosting website. So, I decided to make a guide.


1. Click "Go Advanced" under the text box (next to "Quick Reply").

2. Select "Manage Attachments" in the "Additional Options" section under the text box.

3. A new window will open. Click "choose file" and select an image from your device. Note: if the image is too large, you will have to resize it before uploading it.

4. Click "upload" and your image will appear under "current attachments". You can upload up to 5 photos.

5. Leave the current (Manage Attachments) window, and return to the "Reply to Topic" window.

6. Click the paper clip icon on the toolbar above the text box. A drop down list of the photos you gave uploaded will appear.

7. Select the photo that you want to embed from the drop down list. Once you have done this, an attachment will appear in the text box.

8. When you press "Submit Reply" or "Preview Post", you will be able to see your photo directly embedded into your post.
