This is a friggin guide to everyone who just cannot get it through their heads that we cannot see in your personal C drive. When you want to post an image, NEVER write something that starts with C:\ inside [IMG] tags. It won't work!!

1) Find a good free online server. Angelfire is one.

2) Create a homepage

3) Upload all screenshots to your page.

4) The name of the picture will be http://yourpage/NAME OF THE PICTURE. If you named your picture goal.jpg, then instead of NAME OF THE PICTURE write goal.jpg

5) Come here and click on Image in the Instant UBB Code. Don't figure out the tags yourself. It's easy, just click on image, then put the website from step 4 in the text window.

6) Click Add New Topic

That's it. Now, I want to see a lot of screenshots now. No more C:\ crap. Just follow these simple steps and you'll be fine. How many people do you think made the same mistake before I wrote this guide in 5 minutes.

Geocities and Angelfire DO disallow direct links to pictures so don't use either of them, use either F2S( http://www.f3s.com ) or Brinkster( http://www.brinkster.com )
Both are free and offer a lot of space.
F2S is FTP Upload while Brinkster uses browser uploading</STRONG>
LOL. i know. I would change it, but i don't have time to make a new site and maybe i will close my own at angelfire.

I knew about Geocities, and had a suspicion about Angelfire after all of Belarus Help?'s failed screenshots, but I couldn't think of any server off hand.
