Load your screenshot.bmp into MSPaint (comes with Windows) or other graphics manipulation program and save as screenshot.jpg to a known location - maybe your desktop?
A JPG file is much smaller than a BMP file and speeds up loading times for your spectators.

Now connect to the web and google for "Imageshack" or "Photobucket" or whatever provider of free space you want and open their website.

They show a button "search" that opens a window enabling you to find the location you stored your screenshot.jpg on your computer.

Click it and start the upload function provided. Wait until upload is finished.

When done the website shows an URL address to your screenshot.jpg - now stored on their server. Some provide a version already prepared for forum use.
It looks more or less similar to this:

http:/ /www. providername .com/XXX/177t55kll990screenshot. jpg

Copy this line and paste it into your posting to show your screenshot.

If they only provide the naked URL - here http:/ /www. providername. com/XXX/177t55kll990screenshot. jpg - simply paste it into the small window that opens after clicking on the picture symbol in the second line of the message window of the forums software - here where you write your postings.

You can add the ... tags manually too if you want.
The [ ] is done by <AltGr + 8> and <AltGr + 9>.

If you want to know where other users store their images simply rightclick on their images, click properties and read the URL shown in the popup window.

Use PhotoBucket; they make it even easier.

1) They change it to jpeg automatically, so you don't have to.

2) You don't have to highlight or copy anything. They have four different link functions. The bottom one says "IMG Code". Just click on that one and you get a little box that says "Copied." You're then ready to paste it in your message.

@ Starlion; Du må konvertere bildene dine til .jpeg format før du laster dem opp...Ellers tar det ufattelig lang tid før de med trege linjer greier å laste dem..
Png- filer er for store... .Jpeg gir like bra kvalitet, men er mange ganger mindre enn .png...
Det finnes masse programmer der ute som kan gjøre dette. Prøv å søk på google, eller bruk photoshop eller lignende for å konvertere dem! :D:up:

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:I think if you ask our videoguru Stabiz, he could probably give you a crash-course in "How to swear & curse the Norwegian way; 99 bad words and how to use them!" (Stabiz is from the western part of Norway, and those fellas over there is known to have a ...lets say...extended vocabulary) And he will probably blame me for beeing worse than him, since im from the northern parts on Norway...:rotfl:

Come on, StarLion45

what is it that prevents you from converting your screens to JPG?
Why don't you use your first thread to post the screen? You start several threads to show one screen? What is it good for?

This is no chatroom!

@ starlion; I have now converted this image to .jpeg for you. Do you see the difference in size, and the reduced loading times? Please; Only use .jpg format from now on. Im sorry, but if it pops up more .png's, i'll have to delete them....they are just too big,mate..:-?

Keep practicing matey....one tip, click the preview post at the bottom of your SS message box before you click submit reply and that way you'll know if your post includes your image or not. http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/thumbsup.gif

You'll get there StarLion45 matey....then we'll get you set up with fraps and camtasia which will allow you to take as many multiple screenshots as quickly as your finger can hit the screen capture button, plus movies in avi format.

You'll even be able to edit your movies and add music and/or commentary.

Just takes a little time to learn.....small steps matey, one at a time http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/4030/winkbigid2zj6.gif

D/l Irfanview (it's free and much better than Paint).

Open up your image using Irfanview and simply save it again as a jpeg.
