Re: How do you post a picture in the forums?
You will need to upload the picture to a different website first that can host images. (Scratch won't allow you to do this, because it doesn't have an "image gallery". Once it is uploaded onto another website, you will need to get the URL of the picture. no, not the URL of the page that the picture is on, but the picture's own URL (you can tell because the image URL will end with .jpg, .gif, .bmp, or another picture file). You can usually find it by right-clicking on the image (some browsers have an easy "copy URL" button when right-clicking, others like IE you will need to go to "Properties" and find it there). Copy that URL to your clipboard and post it into the forum post you want it in like this:
[img](post image URL here)[/img]
Phew! Hope you followed me with that!
