How to use imageshack

I see several members use imageshack to upload their pictures. How does it work?

You can upload an image to Image Shack or any other image hosting service and after it uploads it will give you different options. You can copy the BB code and paste it on a forum and it will show the image on the forum without using the bandwidth of the forum host.

Just upload an image there and when the page refreshes look for the box that says BB code (there may be more than one for different options). Copy and paste that code in your post. Click the Preview button to make sure it looks right and then click Post if everything looks right.

how do i limk my album so others can see it?

I am not sure I understand what you mean by linking to your album. If you want to provide just a link, I would suggest putting a link in your signature. That can be done by modifying your profile and clicking the link "Forum Profile Information." You then scroll down to Signature and then put something like "My Album" and paste the link under it.Then it would show up in every post you make.

If you are wanting to display the pictures here, you will have to paste the BB code for each one on your forum post. Image Bam offers an easier way to do this than any of the other ones I have used. It gives the option to upload multiple files and then gives the BB link to each one on the same page.
