Prerequesites
The image you want to show has to be on the internet at some web address sometimes called a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). Members can upload images from their hard drive to this website via the New Bragging Board .

You can either upload your images to this website or post them in the forum using the URL from another website — assuming the other website allows it.

To tell what the URL (web address) of a photo on the web is place the mouse cursor over the photo and right click the image.

A popup menu will have a properties choice - click that with the left mouse button. The URL will be specified in the properties dialog box that subsequently appears after clicking on properties.

You need to copy the web address (URL) from the properties dialog to your computer's clipboard by following the directions below.

To copy text or a URL to your computer clipboard - highlight the text then hold the control key down and at the same time press the 'C' key (for Copy).

To paste text or a URL - place the cursor where you want to insert the text and hold the control key down and at the same time press the 'V' key. Your text will be pasted into the location.

Procedure
1. Read the prerequestites.
2. Determine the URL of the photo you want to post.
3. Copy the URL to your computer clipboard.
4. Go to this message board and click Post.
5. Enter any text you want to appear before the image in the Post field.
6. Click the Instant UBB Code item Image.

That will prompt you with a dialog box to insert your URL into. Place the cursor in the text field and Paste the URL of your photo.
7. Enter any text you want to appear after the image.
8. Check the I want to preview my post checkbox so you can see that your photo does appear and click continue.
9. If your post looks right in the preview window then submit it.

Important: If you have items that you are selling and wish to host the images here then you must create a private album for those images and not clutter up the bragging board with them. If the album is private only you will see the images in the gallery but they can still be referenced in the classifieds by following the procedure above. The bragging board is for photos of your trophies or your guns and not a place to show what you're cleaning out of the safe. If you don't follow this rule I will move your images to the appropriate place and you'll have to edit your classified post.

Thanks for your understanding.
