HOW TO POST PICS ON THE FORUM
A few people of late have asked how to post pics in the forum,
The easiest way I have found to post pics on the forum is to use a free website called Photo Bucket, follow the steps bellow & you should be well on the way to posting pics at will.
There are other websites available that do a similar thing

1. Click on this link http://www.photobucket.com & create a free account
2. Upload your selected pics
. 2a. You may choose to create separate folders, to help organise things
. 2b. Select the “Choose files” button
. 2c. A windows explorer window will open & navigate your way to your saved photo, & select 1 or many photos & click OPEN
3. Under the thumbnail of the pic you just uploaded, select the box labelled IMG code & Copy
4. Go to your new post & paste that code into it, in the location of your choice
NOTE: If you move the location of your image within photo bucket i.e. change folders, the [IMG] code that you posted in your post will no longer be valid & will need to be updated.
TIP: if you want to create a clickable photo that directs you to a website use a code similar to this
[url=www.liberty.asn.au/] [/url]
Change the writing in RED to your own website & BLUE to your [IMG] code & remove the spaces & it should look like this.
