How to host pictures and publish it on a forum
First: what you need is
ƒ
ƒ
a picture
a picture host
As a picture host I strongly recommend IMAGESHACK. You may access IMAGESHACK at
www.imageshack.us.
IMAGESHACK is totally free of costs and password-free. if you want you can make a
donation, which I would recommend you to do if you often use that service (you
know: no money – no service :=)
When you enter IMAGESHACK you are directed to the UPLOAD-SITE:
the BrowseButton
the UploadButton
ƒ
ƒ
First klick on the BROWSE-BUTTON to navigate to your picture which you want to
post in a forum
Second, klick on the HOST-Button to upload the picture to the WEBSPACE of
IMAGESHACK
ƒ
Then you see the following site:
preview of
your photo
several
links
take the
direct link!

To publish your photo on a forum you should choose one of the links named

HOTLINKS FOR FORUMS.
Mark the link (e.g. HOTLINKS FOR FORUMS (1) ) and
copy it to Windows clipboard
via CTRL+C or right mouse click (copy)
The link looks like this:

You have to cut out all the text which I marked red so that the correct link will look
