Adding pictures to a thread....please advise

Ships-R-Us · 12-06-09, 11:30 PM

I view members threads and enjoy the pictures they have posted. I want to do the same. I was told to upload pictures to a hosting site. Today I uploaded for the first time files to my premium Rapidshare account for this purpose. When I start a thread I have the option of "ATTACH", and it asks for the URL/HTTP link. If I paste the link in there will the pictures be viewable to others reading the thread, or will it simply show the download link for them to go download. If that is the case I can add links in a thread anytime for people to download. I hope I answered my own question, as you do not want to be bothered with meaningless threads untill I figure it out myself, as that would be irritating and a waste of this sites resources. This is a great site and keep up the good work.

I have been here only a short time. This is the first time I EVER played a video game. I love it, and have spent a hundred hours in the last two weeks learning this stuff by reading here and trying different stuff to get tuned in, and I about got it ready, as I have been following Mr. DUCIMUS and think I will settle for "TMO/WTW a start. I am an old Navy guy "DD service" 1967-1971 and chose this game to see how things work below the surface.

I am retired and this site has given me a new lease on life and a new outlook as I deal with cancer, 3 ops, and starting chemo on the 14th. I feel young again and enthusiastic again and this diversion is beneficial.
Thanks for reading, and please advise..........Doug in Seattle.
