hey guys, i wanted to post a few pictures of a dio i have made, but im not quite sure how to post pics.

im not sure if this is the right way but this is how i did it.

i started a new topic, then there is the dialogbox where i type my thread, down the bottom it says: "UPLOAD PHOTO(S) BB-CODE HELP", i click upload photos and then browse my pics add them and click ok, but nothing happens but it slows my computer down..

is the the correct way to upload pics ?

cheers,
smithy

Hi Smithy

you first need to up load your picture to Armorama, if you look at the top of the page there is the tabs: homepage, campaigns etc click on the one called photos

this will take you to the kitmaker photo site where you can upload your pictures, you may need to log in (use the same user name password as you would for armorama).

once you have logged in there is a upload photos link towards the top right corner (next to the log in link), click on this and you will be presented with a upload page.

now select the pictures you wish to upload by clicking the browse button and finding them on your PC.

once your happy you have all the pictures ( you may have to do them in blocks if there are lots) scroll to the bottom of the page and click upload/submit.

this will upload the picture to your private space on kitmaker. once they has uploaded you will be presented with all your pictures in your gallery.

click on each picture and underneath you will see the HTML code you need to post your pictures.

Now open another window and go the armorama site (leaving your gallery open), go to the forum and start a new thread (or reply to another depending on where you want to show your Pict's).

now go back to your gallery and copy the whole link under your picture that starts with [img] , paste this link into the forum thread you have opened.

remember to leave space between each link, copy all the link for the different pictures you wish to show.

once your happy, click post

then you will be able to view your post, use the edit button to adjust if need be.

HTH
