Posting pictures

[Jeffmaster223 24]

Hello, people!

if you are here, then i'm gonna assume you don't know how to post pictures!

So i'll tell you in this simple step-by-step- tutorial!

Let's get started---

1. first, take the picture you want to post using the button "PrtScn." It's on your keyboard.

2. open up the program called "paint"(I highlighted it in red).

3. press the "paste" button, or you can just press Ctrl-v.

4. save your picture as a JPEG picture.

5. go to a website that hosts pictures (i use Imageshack). i believe you have to make an account to post pics.

6. once you have your image uploaded, highlight the DIRECT LINK. Right click on it, then press "copy."

7. Go back to simtropolis and click on the "insert image" button. Click it.

8. delete the Http:// already in the box, and paste the copied link into the box by right clicking and pressing

"paste," or just press Ctrl-v.

9.after that, click the insert image button.

10. Repeat.

Was that easy or what? Please tell me if i missed something, or if i did a good/ bad job!

-Anim.

If the picture already exists in a server:

1. In the photo that you want to post, make right click -or your secondary mouse button- over your photo to see a menu of options.

2. Click in the option "Copy direction picture" -In my case it says "Copiar Dirección de la Imagen"- or look for a similar option.

3. In the reply editor select "Insert Image" -the icon with a picture of a tree- and paste the direction of the picture in the box that appeared, then click in "Insert Image".

And this is the result:

And the URL: http://img505.imageshack.us/img505/6820/26671797.jpg

If the picture does not exists in a server, for example is a drawing or a photo:

1. In a hosting server -Imageshack, Photobucket- follow the instructions for upload a photo in their servers.

2. Then copy the direction picture, usually given by the server.

3. In the reply editor select "Insert Image" -the icon with a picture of a tree- and paste the direction of the picture in the box that appeared, then click in "Insert Image".

2. Click in the option "Copy direction picture" -In my case it says "Copiar Dirección de la Imagen"- or look for a similar option.

Firefox says "Copy Image Location" although you appear to be using Firefox.

Internet Explorer says "Copy Shortcut"

Chrome says "Copy Image URL"

Also you might want to mention that you can also open paint by selecting start and typing in paint in the search(Windows 7) or in XP it should be in All Programs>>Accessories>>Paint if you don't have it on your desktop.
