Thanks!

you have to save them to a service like picassa or photobucket or Windows Live Photo Gallery and then post the link to them in your messages.

If at first you don't succeed, do it like your mother told you.

Hello

Im having a tiny bit of trouble uploading my pictures, im using dropbox and once i try to post them on the site i get the following error:

"You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community"

Could you please let me know the allowed image extensions for the site?

Thank you
Sevla

I've run into this. When you post the link into these forums, make certain the entire filename and extension are there. I would copy the link from Photobucket and get this error; finally realised the filename & extension weren't actually there.

If at first you don't succeed, do it like your mother told you.

Go to a service like image shack and create an account. Upload the pictures there. When you see the thumbnail, right click and select "share it". You will seed many options but all you need is to copy the "direct link". Go to your forums post and past the link in. Repeat for as many pictures as you have. It is what I do and it works great.
