'How do I post images on the critics lounge forum?

Well, if you know how to get a website online that's a start.  Basically you need a host that allows hotlinking, this mean they will allow you to link to your images on other sites, like the AGS forums.

One useful place to upload things for the critics lounge (it's for AGS use only) is http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/upload/upload.html.  If your image was coolbg1.gif and you upload it there and then it would be found at http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/coolbg1.gif

If you already have a web host but they won't allow you hot hotlink you can put http://invis.free.anonymizer.com/ in front of the address of the image.

One it is uploaded to a web server you come here and post your message with the [ img]http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/coolbg1.gif[ /img] command and your pic would show up

(you would take the spaces out of [ img] and [ /img] though, I put them in so the board wouldn't interpret them as me trying to actually put an image in)

Hope that explains it. '


Edit: Forgot to put in that that the acceptable formats are: png, gif and jpg.  bmps need to be converted to something smaller.. and that doesn't mean renaming them :P
