I just finished something I'd like to post pics of, but when I tried, I could not. :banghead:

So I'm asking, how do I load pics here?

You can't load pics directly to the site. What you have to do is upload them to a picture hosting site like Photobucket or Imgur and then hotlink them.

Don't be put off by the thought of getting a Photobucket account: it's free, easy and you don't have to do all the social media-style stuff that goes with it if you don't want to.

If using Imgur, they provide the actual format for the image^

Photobucket does something similar.

I forgot about photobucket, and so I'll give it a try.

Thanks for the advice, guys.
