The Wall ... 40k Apoc Terrain build


Recommended Posts

I've been working on my Apoc game board(s) named "the wall" for some time now and would like to post pics of what I have done so far, but, after reading the 'how to post pics" (sic) thread, I'm at a loss as to how to do it... being computer "challenged". Anyone out there willing to help me? Thanks,

 

Stephen

As Quixus said, a bit more info could help.

 

First of all, you need to have your pictures posted online somewhere. Could be on the BnC, on imgur, a payed Photobucket account, or elsewhere as long as they can be linked to...

Have you been able to get that far yet?

I've been wanting to build a 40k city wall for some time and finally got the courage to start cutting and gluing. The wall is 12' long, in total, on a 6' x 12' table. There 6 wall/tower sections and 1 gateway section. The walls are 14" tall, the towers 19" the tallest point on the gateway is 41".   I have 3 12'x6' tables set side by side with a 2' walkway in between for the wall and attckers set up and 2 12'x6' set end to end for my city of Kearnague section behind the wall. The game is setup for an Ork attack on the wall/city with IG, SM and AdMech defenders, all of which I have  painted up... well, most are painted, WIP. Some pics can be found at imgur: imgur.com/a/IW6yZ

Great, that's a start. While I don't use imgur myself (with my own domain, I can host my pics when I need to), it's relatively straightforward.

 

Find a pic you want to display, get the image's direct link (the link to the actual .jpg / .gif / .png file) and paste it into the editor here.

 

So for example looking at the first pic in your galery, if I simply paste the image's URL between [ img ] and [ /img ] tags as follows:

 

(img)https://i.imgur.com/XCxhlFg.jpg(/img)
using [ and ] instead of ( and )

 

The board turns it into:

[img=https://i.imgur.com/XCxhlFg.jpg]

Which, in turns, gives us the following result (spoilered, here, simply because it's a large picture...)

+ Edit: Dammit, the editor always shrinks my tags automatically... Why bother with

 tags if they don't work!?

Under more reply options there either is an image button or you could simply type the code spinsanity typed into the text field.

the edit function (even the simple one) offers the same options.

Captain General here is what you want your posts to look like:

[img=https://i.imgur.com/XCxhlFg.jpg]

So take the link from your image at the imgur site:

https://i.imgur.com/XCxhlFg.jpg

and place it inside IMG brackets:

[img=LINK GOES HERE]

It should look like this when you do that and hit POST:
