How to post images without having to use an image host website
This is my first tutorial
So, a lot of the new people at the forums have been asking how to post images, and the best answer is to upload your picture on an image hosting website like imgur, tinypic,or photobucket, and copy the URL of the photo and use it in the [img] BBcode . But now, i will teach you how to use Attachments and how to use the [img] BBcode on them, step by step.

PS~

For this tutorial I used imgur as an image hosting website c;

Disclaimer:
You can only attach 5 images at a time.
Maximum height and width for inanimate images is 1280 x 720 and is only up to 1.43 MB for .png , .jpeg , .etc and 3.53 MB for .bmp ,
while for the .gif , it's 620 x 280 and is only up to 19.5 KB

You can actually go through this tutorial by just watching the pictures ^^

Okay, here is one question:

Can I remove that pesky Attached Thumbnails on the bottom of my post?

Yes you can. Go back to the Manage Thumbnails popup and click

If you accidentally didn't copy the link address yet, just press backspace or something to go back to the previous page


having doubts about this.

We already have tutorial about this, but seems like this one is better.
Oh, and the spoiler under "uploaded picture" is empty.
Pro tip: Once you have uploaded these pictures, you can double back on them and use them without having to leave them attached.
Upload them according to this tutorial, right click on the attachment and say "open in new tab" and the copy the url in the tags
