Hello everyone! Today, I will be teaching you how to upload pictures to use for the YoWorld Forums!

There are TWO ways depending on what you're doing.

First Way: If you're taking an image from the internet that's already there (Google Images), use this way!
1) Find the picture you want.
2) Click on it and find it's "link"

3) Copy this link and go to the "reply" section in the forums (not quick reply, but reply)
4) Once there, Click the "IMG" symbol and this should show:
5) insert the link that you copied between the "img" symbols. For example: "[img]LINKOFPICTURE[/img]
6) Click submit (and if you want to preview) and you're done!
WARNING: Some pictures might get cut off because they're too big. The Forum's biggest pictures can be 640 x 480

Second Way: If this picture is on your computer and you did NOT find it on the internet (so it's apart of your documents). I will be using the website "Tinypic" in this tutorial, BUT there are many other sites you may use too.
1) First, have the picture that you want saved on your laptop/ computer) I'm not sure if it's going to work on your iphone, etc, but you can try
2) Go to tinypic.com and it should say "File: ___" there should be a button next to that. Click it!

WARNING: My button is in chinese, Don't know why. Your button should be whatever language you set your computer to.
3) Once clicked, it should bring you to the places where you've saved all your documents, pictures, etc. Find the picture that you saved and want to upload. Then click "open"

4) There should be a "resize" button and click that and choose "Message Board". You don't NEED to, but this step is to make sure that your photo will not be cut off when you post it! If you are certain that your image is less than 640 x 480 (the message board standard), then you're good!
5) Click upload now!
6) It will give you options of codes and you copy the code that says "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards"

7) Paste this into whatever you want to in here! And the image should show up after you submit it. You can hit "Preview" to see if it worked or not.
TIP: You do NOT need to put the thing because it will be already provided for you!

Hope this helps and if you have any more suggestions, leave them in the comments below!
