How to Post an Image on a Forum

This forum support's the IMG code.

1. Log into your Photobucket account. http://photobucket.com/

Note: The checkbox may only display if you move your mouse over the media.

There now that's out of the way lets take a look at AVATARS those are the small pictures you see next to posters names.........

First and foremost an Avatar has to be under a certain size in order to be able to use/upload it to the forums.

Maximum dimensions; width: 120 pixels, height: 120 pixels,

This is a FREE Avatar Sizer program that you can use to re-size any picture to fit in the Avatar "slot".

User Control Panel/Profile/Edit Avatar at this screen you will see this "Upload from your machine:" also
A browse button. http://www.southfloridasharkclub.com/foro/ucp.php?i=profile&mode=avatar
Click the browse button and find the avatar that you made and upload it and wala your in like flint

PS: There are many websites other than the ones i have linked that can do the same things, So if you guys/gals know of those sites feel free to post any helpful hints you can think of

Further more as some may have heard Photobucket HAD some security type problems in the PAST but i believe those are mostly non existent now.

PLEASE keep in mind ANYTHING you post on/in any website has the potential of being viewed and or seen by anyone in the world......NO security measures are foolproof.
Basically don't post it if you don't want it seen
