Q&A: How can I attach an image to a post?

[kq76]

First off, if you don't know how to take a screenshot of the game, read this.

To attach an image, start a reply or a new thread as you normally would, then scroll down to the section titled "Additional Options", and click on "Manage Attachments". A small window should then pop up. Click on "Choose File", select the file you want to attach, and press "Upload". Close the popup window and scroll back up to finish your post and press "Submit...".

EDIT: Ahh, it looks like that section might not show for new users. EDIT2: Some testing seems to indicate it kicks in within 15 minutes of registration. So if you can't see the section right away, just give it some time.

If you still don't see that section, then you can try uploading to another site like imgbb.com and then put URL tags ([ URL ] url_goes_here [ /URL ], but without the spaces) around the link to it and it will show up as a link. IMG tags work too and will show the image in the post, but they must direct to a URL with an image extension, not what looks like a folder.

If you have attachments to go with your post, don't use the "quick reply" option. It doesn't have the attachment icon (paper clip) in the tools.

Thanks for the great instructions, kq76. I wish I had seen them months ago.

To attach an image, start a post, go to “Additional Options”, click “Manage Attachments,” choose your file, upload it, then submit your post.

If you don’t see that section, wait about 15 minutes after registering. You can also upload the image to a site like imgbb and share it using URL or IMG tags.
