to remote host your pictures edit them down in size first please use the "Paint" program and the Image - stretch and screw option, upto 800 pixles wide should be ok any wider and the board starts to look a bit odd.

next using a FTP program transfer then to your web space . ( I use ftp commander)

then from the forum use the "IMG" tag and link to the photo. it will look like this:-

http://www.yourweb site address/picture name.jpg'
or
http:www.yourweb site adresss/ folder name/ picture name

rememeber to type or use the IMG tag twice once at the start and once at the end.

FTP Commander download here


Another option is to use a service like photobucket which is free and easy.

Guide to using Photobucket:


1 go to photobucket.com and create an account.
2 create an album name ( helps to organise your photos from differant events
3 upload the photos using the sites uploader
4 select the photos you just uploaded on the site and select generate IMG codes (your looking for the IMG code for message boards)
5 copy and paste these codes into a new post on here and press submit post just as if you had typed a normal message.

if all has gone to plan thats it
