First, click on the "Upload Attachment" button beneath the editor window:
Upload Attachment.jpg
Then click on the "Browse" button:
Browse to file.jpg
This will open a Windows Explorer window. Move to the folder containing the image you want to upload and click on it. Then click on the "Open" button in the bottom right hand corner of the window.

This will take you back to the forum editor window. Next click on the "Add the file" button. There will be a short pause as the file is uploaded.
Add the file.jpg
Finally click on the "Place inline" button and the code to show the picture will be inserted into your editor window at the current location of the cursor.
Place Inline.jpg
If you edit the text, make sure you keep every thing between the first and last square brackets intact or the image will not display.

Hope this helps.

Adrian.

HI GUYS
Dont forget Ragnar may need to resize his pics first
To resize go to your pics on computer
1 find the pic you want
2 right click on the pic
3 top of the page left hand side click resize
4 change to pixels , and on horizontal, change to 700 , vertical should change automatic if not change to 525
5 Now you have two options you can go to the top right of the screen and click the red X TO COME OUT it will ask you if you want to save changes IF YOU SAVE , YOU WILL LOOSE THE ORIGINAL SIZE PIC FOR GOOD .
6 SECOND OPTION once you have changed the pixels click top left home go to save as .Give your pic a new name (resize 1) click save ,now you should have both pics still on the computer ,your original one and the resized one for use on armortek.
Posting is as mentioned above previously .
Have a go RAGNAR its not too bad it was adrian who explained it to me .GOOD LUCK

Well done Ragnar :D

> how to add more than one pic.

Once you have uploaded the the first file, and have a window similar the one in my last screen shot, you should see the "Upload attachment" link towards the bottom of the screen, under the details of the last picture added, so you just repeat the process for the next picture.
