Hi All

I'm a long time "lurker", but this is my first post, having only recently registered. Furthermore, I'm also somewhat technologically challenged. My question is and I'm sure this has been asked before, is how does one go about uploading pictures of your builds? Does one need a Photobucket account? A step by step "how to" would be most helpful.

Hi,
I always recommend www.tinypic.com as it is free, really easy to use and you do not even need to create an account (although it is good if you want to keep track or reuse photos).

Once you have uploaded your photo, it gives you the text to copy&paste to share it on sites or forums.

Give it a try and let me know if you need any help,

Postimg.org is another very similar pic hosting site - can be used without registering, but setting up an account makes keeping track of your uploads easy.

Photobucket is another option. Basic functions like uploading and link handling is largely as easy to use as Postimg and Tinypic, but on the whole it's much bulkier and more bloated than the other two, which are strickly image hosting sites without other stuff bolted on.
