This belonged in Forum Issues more than General Discussion ;)
Similar threads have been made numerous times in the past, but just for you:
- Locate the images you want to share on your computer. For in-game screenshots, look in the "screenshots (http://img82.imageshack.us/img82/1523/001nx8.gif)" folder within your PlaneShift directory.
- Use a free image host for uploading. Some of the best ones include ImageShack (http://www.imageshack.us/), Phosted (http://www.phosted.com), and Photobucket (http://photobucket.com/).
- Follow the instructions of the image host you've chosen to upload your image. Be aware of size limitations, though most of the hosts resize images if necessary.
- Once the upload has finished, use the following tag to load the image anywhere into a forum: [I M G]http://www.website.com/image.jpg[/ I M G] (but no spaces!)

My reply was not really meant to be a \"complete beginners guide\", more an addition to Karyuu\'s points for more details on how to do the code, and how to tweak the appearance.

How did you get that picture like that, you know RUBY thingy

As Karyuu told you in another thread, close your tags with [/url] and [/img].
If you want to get that RUBY thingy, you need to join the Ruby Reign (http://myrolan.us/smf/index.php) guild. Otherwise make sure that your signature looks similar to this:
[url=<web page address>][img]<image address>[/img][/url]

i usually just do the simple
---<img src="whatever the url is">---
adn it turns out fine

don't you need some kind of [html] tag or something or is it enabled by default? test if this is bold it works if not... well
edit: thank you, html does work, this is going to be fun :P
-
<font color="#ff0000">Does that mean we can use all purrty HTML colours?</font>
<font size="4">Sigh, I forgot how to use html...</font>
-
Be sure to close the html tag though.
*edit*
Hm... I guess the html tags have limits.
-
I think the only HTML tags that work by default are <I>, <B> and <U> anthing else is denied unless told not to.
-
Colors work fine as long as you use the cross browser html color names (http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colornames.asp) or just the color changer. I changed the color in the last sentence by substituting "Chartreuse" for "black" in the color changer. The names seem to be case sensitive.
It seems some of those color names do not work in firefox on linux and perhaps others but using three two digit hex numbers preceded with a hash mark does. For example #32afc5 seems to be a nice random shade of blue.
-
I have read the post and answer but I have a few questions. What does I M G mean and what is the web site to use in the syntax. Can you write the syntax as it is to be entered annotating parts that are relevant to my situation.
-
img stands for image and it is just a tag, the letters together as a three letter "word", it sort of looks like they should be separated in the example above but they are not. The website is any website that has an image you want to link. It is probably better if it is your own image that you uploaded but not technically necessary.
example: [img]http://web.ncf.ca/cr502/tiles/ripple.png[/img] (http://web.ncf.ca/cr502/tiles/ripple.png)
