Author's Note:
Full credit goes to our good friend megane-kun for being the original author in formulating this set of helpful rules.
It seems that many of us here don't know how to provide thumbnails for the images in their posts. So I would put the instructions here for some of the more common image hosting sites out there
PHOTOBUCKET:
- in your album, right click on the thumbnail of the image you wish to post
- select copy image location
- you should get something like this on your clipboard: http://s246.photobucket.com/albums/gg81/m3...93758780408.jpg
- surround that url with img tags
- surround the image (from the previous step) with url tags
- after the equals sign in the opening url tag, paste the url once again, but this time, remove the th_ part
- there you have it! you have your thumbnail! (no captions though, but you might just want to put some text underneath it...)
- Code: Select all
step 1-3:
---------
http://s246.photobucket.com/albums/gg81/m3g4n3kun/th_1193758780408.jpg
step 4:
-------
[img]http://s246.photobucket.com/albums/gg81/m3g4n3kun/th_1193758780408.jpg[/img]
step 5:
-------
[url=][img]http://s246.photobucket.com/albums/gg81/m3g4n3kun/th_1193758780408.jpg[/img][/url]
step 6:
-------
[url=http://s246.photobucket.com/albums/gg81/m3g4n3kun/1193758780408.jpg]\
[img]http://s246.photobucket.com/albums/gg81/m3g4n3kun/th_1193758780408.jpg[/img][/url]
here's the result from step 6:
enjoy~

[note]:
the \ at the end of the first line at step 6 means that the line is continued in the next line (for formatting purposes, i had put in the line break there)... there should be no line breaks at that part...
also... take note:
- Code: Select all
[IMG]http://s246.photobucket.com/albums/gg81/m3g4n3kun/th_1193758780408.jpg[/IMG]
and
- Code: Select all
[URL=http://s246.photobucket.com/albums/gg81/m3g4n3kun/1193758780408.jpg] ... [/URL]
