You can upload the images from ur computer to the internet by image uploading services like Imageshack, Photobucket

Get the Direct link of the image after uploading from the portals

and use those links between the [img] [/img] tags

cAN i NOT UPLOAD THE FILE DIRECTLY FROM MY HDD

No you cannot upload files to the forum server. You will have to host it somewhere first and that too at a place that allows hotlinking of images. Free site provider like lycos and tripod prohibit it to ave bandwidth.

Open www.imageshack.us this will host your image


Click on browse to find the image


Select the image which you want to post


Click on host it to upload the image


Copy the link of the image


Paste the link in your post as:

[img]http://**example**/**example**/**example**.jpg[/img]

You are done

vishal_bhatia87, you are spoon feeding Don't spoil his habits Give him the site, let him find his way around the site. This is not something very complicated.

Thanks vishal_bhatia87. It is useful for me too. I am sure for many other beginners.

Let the spoon feeding continue

So spoon feeding is dangerous for the person who is receiving it. Got it?

I think helping beginners is not a spoon feeding. I remember my days when I even dont know how to shutdown the computer. But now Iam an advanced user. Iam helping those who are on the same stage where I was sittened 4 years ago.
