Hosting Pictures and Video

Post by Crumz »

Need to host an image?
Visit www.imageshack.com . Follow the instructions. Once the pic is loaded, you will be given the code. Copy it from the I/S website straight into your message. Pretty easy eh?
If the pic is hosted elsewhere, right click it and select 'properties'. The URL will be there. Copy it. Go back to your message, use the [img] tag, then [/img] at the end.
Example: [img]www.yourpichere.com/pic.jpg[/img]

Need to host a video?
Go to www.putfile.com and upload it through there. At the end, it will give you a link. The link given will take veiwers to a site where they can veiw the video. If you wish to download the video to your harddrive, right click the video window, select properties. There will be a URL. Copy it into an internet explorer window. This will bring up the 'save file' dialogue.

Peice of piss eh?

"View" and then "Source"

This will bring up some text ignore it and go to "edit" and then "find"

Type in ".avi"

Bingo you get this...
