Uploading images with Imgur
Step 1:
Go to - http://imgur.com/ and sign up for an account.
You can either create an account manually with your email address, or connect via Facebook so you don't have to sign up.
Then you just have to choose a user name!
Step 2:
Log in and click the "Upload Images" button top left, then choose "Upload Images" again.
Step 3:
You will then see a few options:
You can then choose to either -
> Browse Your Computer... this will bring up a box for browsing your PC locations to pick the image file
> Drag and drop... this lets you drag an image file from somewhere on your PC onto the Imgur screen
> Paste from clipboard... if you have already copied an image you can just paste it with CTRL+V (unfortunately I can't get a screenshot of this!)
> Paste a link.... if the image is already on the internet you can right click on it and choose "Copy Image" (or similar) and then paste the copied text into this box with right click > paste or CTRL+V
The image will then be shown below the options and you can add more if you wish.
When you are done, press "Start Upload".
Step 4:
To view your images, go to your username at the top right of the screen and then go to "Images". You should then see all of your uploaded pics!
Click the image you want, and then it will pop up! You will see to the right various links.... the one you want is BBCODE as shown below
Step 5:
Copy the text and paste it into your Suzuki Club UK post! It will look like this:
and when you finish the post it will look like this!
PS. If you use the Imgur mobile app on your phone, images are automatically added to Imgur. This way you can skip to step 4 right away!
Uploading Images with Drop Box
First you need to click here and log in to create a public folder:
https://www.dropbox.com/enable_public_folder
You will then be sent an email you have to open, then click on the link to verify your email address.
Once done, you will be able to see the public folder in your drop box. Put the pics in there.
Then access your drop box via dropbox.com, go into the public folder, right click on the image you want to post and choose "Copy Public Link" which will look something like this:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/197 ... 5555_n.jpg
All you have to do is paste that link into your suzuki club post, highlight it, then press the "Img" button!
Then it should look like this in the editor
Which looks like this when you view it!
Et voila!
