Host it on Imageshack or similar, upload and copy the forum code generated.

Then just click

Photobucket (Google it) is easiest method, and setting up an account is free...

When you've set up your account upload your photo's by following the easy instructions;

You'll need a window on your desktop for retrobike and another for Photobucket:

When you get to the point in your post where you want to insert a pic switch to your Photobucket; when you place the cursor over the pic you want you'll get a drop down menu; place the cursor over the box that says 'Img code' and when it changes to a pointing finger 'left click' and you'll get the msg 'image copied;'

Swicth back to your post on here, 'right click' and 'paste' - you will have a line of code with '

Small, <250kb can also be added as attachments.

Click the "Add an Attachment" button in the "Attachment Posting Control Panel" that appears just above the preview & submit buttons. Select the file you want, Click "add Attachement" to the side of the comment box.

Click preview to double check you got the correct image.

Arse I accidentally clicked to watch this topic, so ill be getting updates about interwebnetwork basics until the end of all time.

If you have a question that you think that maybe you are in a minority of by not knowing the answer to, my first suggestion would be to ask google before dragging at the same old responses to a question that has been asked a gazillion times before. Hell even these hallowed pages where the hi tec meets Luddite on a daily basis has seen this particular question answered many times before. A simple search ob here may of sufficed (google how to search a forum if you don't know).

You were not the first to ask the question and you won't be the last, you certainly don't deserve this reply and you would of avoided it if not for my own incompetence at accidentally clicking to be notified to new posts on this thread.

Um don't wanna derail the rant, but you can unwatch the thread just as easily as you watch a thread...

Even the email notification of a reply, includes a handy doohickey for unsubscribing to the thread.
