Yes, you can post images.

 

Are there any special codes/tags I can use to format my posts and messages?

 

For the most part, your posts will contain plain text, but on occasions, you may want to emphasize certain words or phrases by making them (for example) bold or italic.

 

Depending on the rules of the board, you may use HTML code to produce these effects. However, more often than not, the administrator will have disabled HTML code, and opted instead to use vB Code: a special set of tags which you can use to produce the most popular text-effects. vB code has the advantage that it is very simple to use, and is immune to malicious javascripts and page layout disruption.

 

You may also find that the administrator has enabled smilies, which allow you to use small icons to convey emotion, and the code, which allows you to add pictures to your message.

For more information about vB code:

What Are Attachments?

 

The administrator may allow you to use the attachment feature of this board, which gives you the ability to attach files of certain types to your posts. This could be an image, a text document, a zip file etc. There will be a limit to the file size of any attachments you make, as the board should not be used as an extension of your hard disk!

 

To attach a file to a new post, simply click the [browse] button at the bottom of the post composition page, and locate the file that you want to attach from your local hard drive.

 

Only certain types of files may be attached: these are the valid file extensions for files to be attached to this board: gif jpg png txt zip bmp jpeg.

 

After posting, the attachment will show up in the body of your message. To view the contents of the attachment (if it is not already displayed) simply click the filename link that appears next to the attachment icon .

 

 

 

 

 

Now, how to do all of this stuff fast and easy.

 

Code Buttons and Clickable Smilies

 

These controls allow you to quickly and easily enter vBcode into your posts and messages. To use them, simply click the appropriate buttons or select items from the lists to enter vBcode.

 

There are two modes available: normal and enhanced mode.

 

When using normal mode, pressing a button will pop-up a dialog for you to fill with text. It will then enter the text with the appropriate vB Code tags at the end of your message.

 

When using enhanced mode, pressing a button will insert the appropriate STARTING tag for the code, leaving you to enter text into the message area. When you have finished the text and want to close the tag, simply press the Close Current Tag button (alt+c). You may also nest tags in enhanced mode, and then use the Close All Tags button (alt+x) to close all open markup. Please note that the 'close tag' buttons only close tags that have been entered using the code buttons.

 

To use the clickable smilies, simply click the smiley that you want to insert into your message, or click the Get More link (if available) to access the full list of smilies.

the old setup for the board worked great

but for some reason i cant post pics now..

[OscarBeast]

It works fine.

 

You are probably just trying to post too big of a file size or pixel width. Either will not allow it to display.
