Ok. So you want to know how to post pictures and hyperlinks? But you don't know how to use the UBB code. Well, this is the thread that you need to be reading.
First, what does UBB code stand for or do? UBBCode™ is a variation of the HTML tags. Basically, it allows you to make your posts better and more complex.
Anyways, on to the UBB code and it's uses.
If you have noticed, there are some buttons that are located above the smiley faces when you are posting messages. These are automated UBB code. Basically, you dont have to remember all of the UBB code tags, the board will put them in your message for you if you click on them.
*Please note that I will be using spaces between the tags so that they are visable to you in this post.*
Posting an image
"How do I post an image?"
This is by far the most common question that is asked. Well, here it is, step by step.
1. First you need to find whatever image that it is that you would like to post.
2. You need to get this image on to the Web, in order for it to be linked to 4gcelica.net. This site does not have it's own hosting right now, so you will have to find your own. There are many free hosting websites, but by far the best one that I have found is:
www.photobucket.com (Kudo's to Coomer for that link ;D)
3. Once you have the image uploaded to your hosting site, you have to find out the URL of the image that you are wanting to post. To do that, you must right click on the image and go to properties. When the properties show up, the URL of the image will be at the bottom.
4. Once you see the URL, highlight it and copy it. Then, go to your post and insert the img tags. They look like this:
URL HERE[/ i m g]
But with no spaces in between the img's.
5. Click post and your picture should come up with no problems.
I'll have more later.
