I know I'm stupid, but someone help me out here.  How do you post images of custom stuff?  When I click "Insert/Edit Image", the preview is a bunch of crazy text like this: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing..."  Then if I put something from photobucket or tinypic into the URL field, a blank box appears in the preview along with the crazy text (and no image shows up when publishing).

Someone please explain this to me like I'm a 2 year old!  Thanks  ;)

Step 1: Export the Picture from Strange Eons (if you are using it otherwise ignore this step) using the "Post to the Web" option: otherwise the picture will be too big for the Forum

Step 2: Upload it to your favorite server.  I use Photobucket without problems, so I will explain for Photobucket, make sure you have Photobucket Scaleing to 800 x 600 (default upload setting).

Step 3: Save Image and Return to your Album.

Step 4: Select your image in your Album.

Step 5: Look for the box labeled "Direct Link" and copy that URL.

Step 6: Begin posting on these Forums.

Step 7: Click on Insert/Edit Image Button.

Step 8: Paste the URL you copied in Step 5 to the URL box and click OK.

Step 9: Click the "Publish" button on these Forums.
