  1. I have a completed game and I cant seem to figure out how people post pictures on their game post and make it look professional and such. Can I please get some help? I am dying to release my game. Thanks!
  2. I might be able to help, if you give me an example of a good one.
  3. Go to the Completed Games section of the Forums. I also cannot paste for some reason >_> WHY IS THIS SO HARD ?!
  4. First upload the picture here:

    http://imgur.com/

    Then Click upload images and choose the images you want

    then start upload

    After that Copy "Image link" 

    then do you see the green button when you post? right under the colors ?

    Click it then paste the URL

    and the picture will appear.
  5. Nobody "pastes" their images to the forum. They all upload them to an appropriate site, then add a link to the image. Here are the instructions:


    How to take a Screenshot:


    You've heard people say to take a screenshot, but how does one take a screenshot of their game? Simple, while the game is running, hit the Prt Scr button on your keyboard, which is located right next to your F12 key. If you're using a laptop, you might have to use the Fn key in combination with the Prt Scr key to get it to work.

    Now that you've pressed the button, it's time to paste this screenshot into an image editing software. If you don't have anything fancy such as Adobe Photoshop, GIMP or Paint.NET, no worries; you can use MS Paint instead. Open up your image editing software, create a new file, and then hit ctrl+v on your keyboard, or simply right click on the screen and select paste. This should instantly paste the screenshot into your image editing software. You can go ahead and crop the image to suit your needs, or if you don't even know what that means, you can just upload it as it is.

    Save the image as a PNG, or if you really need to, as a high quality JPG.


    How to upload the image to the forums


    Now that you have you have an image on your computer you'd like to show us, how can you get it to show up on the forums? Firstly, you need to find an image hosting site, photobucket.com or imageshack.us are popular ones. If you have another image uploading website, great - use that one! Either way, upload it to the site, and then get the direct link. Don't get the resized link, or the thumbnail link, but the direct URL. You'll know you have the direct URL if the URL ends with the file extension you saved your image in (which will hopefully be .png).



    Once you have this direct URL to your image, simply use the IMG tags in your forum post and paste the URL in between them. If this image is big, please leave the image in spoiler tags.
