hi, well ive tried numerous times, and ive never gotten it to work. i need help posting pictures or attaching them to threads. like, i take a screenshot of w/e im selling, then i open that up in paint and cut out whatever i dont want in the picture, but then when i make a new thread and i click on upload picture, and i click on my picture, it says please wait and does nothing (and my picture is non-existant) or it says that the picture is too big for the type of file.

can anyone help me with precise instructions? i'll be very appreaciated

thanks

I dont use the upload pic but lemme show you how i DO use pics on here.

First take the pic with prnt screen.
Then go the MS paint and cut out what you need and resave the file.
Go to www.imageshack.us and click upload file.
when it uploads file copy and paste what says "forums thumbnail 1"
It will come up with something like this
[URL]BLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHLBHALBHABLAHBLAH[IMG][URL]

look somethin like this

Post if have anymore questions

File too large? Are you trying to upload a .bmp file? If so, you need to save yor files as JPEGs. Open up the picture in paint, hit "save as" go to file type and scroll down to JPEG, hit the ok button. Voila.
