Resizing images

If you need to resize a screenshot because itīs larger than 1024x786 you can use Irfanview, itīs free:
http://www.irfanview.com/

Open the image with Irfanview, go to Image -> Resize/Resample, under Size method select Resample, then type in the new size in Set new size, after that click Ok.

To save it go to File -> Save as, set Save as type to JPG, tick Show Options dialog and set Save quality to 85. Then save the image.

Alternative method

If you already have a JPG, Imageshack can resize it for you. On Imageshack.us click resize image? and select 1024x786, then upload the image.

Uploading images

Images can be uploaded to Imageshack:
http://imageshack.us/

Once uploaded youīll see several links that you can copy. Take the one named "Direct link to image", mark the link and copy it (Ctrl-C).

Paste the link into your post (Ctrl-V), then wrap it in image tags.

HTML Code:
[IMG]http://server/image.jpg[/IMG]
Quoting (as suggested by Safekeeper and addedd by Drebbel)

Just some back-seat moderation, if I may: Could everyone be so kind as to not quote posts containing pictures? It clutters up the thread and makes it take longer to load.
As usual another good tip i'll add to my noobie folder THX .
