Brother Tyler Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 The easiest thing to do is create your own free gallery here at the B&C. Alternately, you can use image hosting sites such as Photobucket and Imageshack. You can find instructions for either option in the B&C 101 here.

Imperial Deceit Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 You can actually upload via this site. That is the best way. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254226-posting-images/#findComment-3086879 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacinda Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I have used several image hosting sites before and for the most part, any one will do. Just google "iimage hosting" and pick one. Of course google will reccomend picasa because google owns them but any one will do. For posting here, I like to use the gallery stored here. here's why. Have you ever been looking through an old thread -- maybe a tutorial or discussion on a conversion -- and find that half the pictures are blank? That is because for what ever reason, those pics are no longer on the remote site. Dropped to make space for others or canceled accounts or what ever reason, they are just not there. If you use the gallery here, then the photo will always be available to this site since this site is hosting it. Well, sort of, maybe ... but the details about which server does what are mostly irrelevant. It's all under the B&C banner and they go together always.

puck Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Once you get the photos uploaded to the host (I'd recommend using B&C as well) open up your gallery and then open up the thread you wish to post in in two separate windows. That way you can copy/paste the link into the "insert image" button.

Imperial Deceit Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Jacinda makes a good point, if you post on B&C then your pictures will only be lost if ether you delete your account or if B&C ceases to exist (in which case it won't matter) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254226-posting-images/#findComment-3087628 Share on other sites More sharing options...
