1. Click on the 'album' link at the top of the page to the right of the 'www.fto-ireland.com' logo
2. Click on Your 'Personal Gallery'
3. To upload a picture, click on the 'Upload Pic' button
4. On the next window, enter a title and description (optional) and click on the 'Browse' button
5. Browse to the location on your hard disk where you've saved your picture and click on 'open'
6. Back on the main screen, click on 'submit' to upload your picture to the Gallery

Note: Pictures uploaded to the Album must have a resolution lower than 1293 x 794 and be less that 256kbyes in size.

Pictures uploaded for use as an avatar must be no larger than 10kb in size


If you want to place one of your pictures in a thread, copy the link URL from the address bar in your browser (when viewing the image) and paste it into your post, highlight the link and then click on the Img button underneath the subject bar, this places image tags around the link and displays the picture in your post.

You can also use the following sites to host pictures, use the same process above to display in your post:

Excellent sticky - can I just add that it's always a good idea to use the preview fucntion when posting picture - just to make 100% sure they load in the location you intended them to.
