How Do I Post Pictures?
Yeah, this is a noob question but I read the directions on the FAQ and I still don't understand how to post pictures without having to link them from another website. When I tried attaching files they just disappeared when I tried posting. Please help.

You need to host your photo on a photo sharing site such as Imgur and then use the bbcode link provided in order to paste here.

I tried doing that, and at the top of my post it said in big, red letters "You cannot use certain BBCodes: [url]."

Couple questions so I can try to troubleshoot this for you as I have never had an issue with sharing images using this method. Did you use Imgur or some other sharing site? Did you select BBCode or linked BBCode?Jadeninja9 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 31, 2017 6:31 pmI tried doing that, and at the top of my post it said in big, red letters "You cannot use certain BBCodes: [url]."
Try taking the direct link address (the one with .jpg) and putting it in between a pair of brackets like this [ ]image address example .jpg [ ] put IMG in the first bracket and /IMG in the second one with no spaces. You will notice this is the same as the BBCode link but sometimes when I am on my phone it wont let me copy the BBCode and I have to do it manually. Let me know if that works for you.
