How do I transfer images from Imageshack to ST? I know how to upload images to Imageshack. There are like 6 URLs from imageshack for uploading to websites. Which one do I pick? I need some kind of tutorial-like thing. 

SOMEONE - PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Choose the "Direct Link" to the image and then put [*IMG] before the link and [*/IMG] after the link, remove the asterisks as I have only posted these to avoid the code disappearing. Post the link with the code mentioned above before and after it and it should work. Alternatively you could just pick the "Direct Link" to the image, click the picture which looks like a mountain and the sun above the Reply box and just post the link directly into the URL box. 

Remember to keep images 800x600 pixels or less. 2.gif

    You need to understand the version 5 image control, and simply use it.

    Put the url of the image you want on the clipboard (mark it, and hit CTRL+C) then open in new image box, above, then select the URL box, and press CTRL+V.  You can also type alternate text and set other parameters.  This will generate the needed BBS code, so I think you will like this better than trying to code it yourself.  Please remember the image size limit of 800 x 600.
