How Do I Add Pictures to My Posts and Comments?

HTML Help

BlueNC does not, generally speaking, host images. That means that, before you can post a picture here, you'll need to find a home for it on the web. Popular free solutions include ImageShack, photobucket and (my favorite) flickr.

Once you have uploaded a picture to the internet and you know the picture's URL (image hosting companies like those above will help you get the URL for your image), all you need is a little HTML. For example, typing this:

Start with just this. Then, paste the URL for your image into the quotation marks and you should be good to go. If you're using Firefox, you can right-click on an image and select "Copy Image Location" to get the URL. In IE7, right-click and select "Copy Shortcut". Let me know how that works out and I'll adjust the instructions accordingly!
