How do you post pics on here?

Pictures need to be uploaded somewhere (a photo site like Flicker or Photobucket) or you can even upload photos right here on the site to the photo gallery (see 'Gallery' link at top of each forum page).

Once you have uploaded photos the sites typically tell you how to link the image in a post like this. You need the URL (or web address) of the image and you place it in an IMG tag as part of your post. For example:

http://tagrel.com/images/logo/tagalong.png

Would display this image:

http://tagrel.com/images/logo/tagalong.png

Hope that helps!

Aw, Dave beat me to this one...

Anyway, Flickr and Photobucket are probably the most popular free photo hosting/sharing sites today, but many online photo hosting sites will give you links to each of your photos for use on message boards or web pages, so if you already have an account with some other photo sharing site, look at the FAQ or intro page to see how to get those links.

If you don't have a membership to any photo hosting sites, try Photobucket. (http://register.photobucket.com/step1/index) It's free to join and easy to use. Once you set up your account, there are instructions and tutorials on the site explaining how to upload your pics, and how to get the links you need to post a pic on a message board (using the code that Tagrel posted above).
