Could someone please explain how to put pictures from my copmuter on a post? The only thing I don't know, and I really want to.

you have to host it on a web site, then use the url link, but I forgot the rest :S

First, you have to get it one the internet somewhere. I stick things in LennonCooks account because I happen to have the password to it and my own accounts dont allow remote linking. You can probably stick it in your ISP webspace.

There used to be services like ranchoweb that let you host images for free, but thousands of people used them for forums which is a relatively high bandwidth use and so the free services have generaly been suspended. But if your willing to pay ranchoweb still have decent enough performance.

Anyway, when you have the image online, just put the URL in IMG tags in your post like so:

code:
[IMG]URL[/IMG]
[/QUOTE]You cannot use a path on your harddrive, some forums allow you to do that and it will upload the pic onto the server, but IW dosent support such a feature.
