Unfortunately, you can't upload pics directly from your hard drive
to the forum.

You need to find some webspace to host your images. Once you have an account, upload your images there and then copy and paste the url
to the thread.

Example: Image with url http://www.pics.com/pic.jpg
This is just an example!!!!

You would go to the thread and type:
"http://www.pics.com/pic.jpg" inside the
[img][/img]

You have to enclose the image in the [img][/img] tags.

I suggest going to http://www.iownjoo.com for image hosting

OR

http://www.villagephotos.com/

These sites are both good for image hosting.

P.S. If you want to put smilies into your post, right click on the smily, the click on "properties" and copy and paste the url to the thread using the [img][/img] tags

Hope i have helped

Why No Pics?

I can never understand why TA doesn't allow hard drive uploads for pics unlike other vBulletin forums I've been on? I know there might be some newbies that will abuse posting pics but that would give us something to make fun amusing us even more. Such a pain to have to sign up webspace. O well I'm not going to cry........I'll be ok.

They offer you the following:

it was a promotional offer but the link still works
