    Default Posting Screenshots

    I figured out how to get my screenshots and put them in a folder in documents, but if I want to post them here, do I need a photobucket or something simaliar? I'm checking the icons above my post as I write this, and I see the insert picture but it seems to want some website address(starts please enter URL and has the http/) I'll start another photobucket account(forgot info from last time) but if it's not needed... Any info welcome.

    Use http://www.imageshack.us for uploading pictures. It won't save them to an account, but you said you already had a folder of pictures, so no big deal.

    All you need to do is browse through your document for the pic you want to upload, click "host it!" and it will provide you with a series of URLs that are pretty self-explanatory.

    Just a quick question about pictures. i have some screens that i took and want to upload to in a post, but my images are over 100 kb, how do i make them smaller ?

    As TW makes them Wmf files i saved them to jpeg but the smallest they got was 145 kb and that is too big according to the rules.

    They should not be in .wmf format. What is the resolution of the game.

    Game is running 1360 x 768, but TW spits out 1024 x 768 images. considering it says the max file size is 100 kb and yet the max res is 1280 x 1024, don't know how people get their images at that res while sitting under 100kb.

    They must be resizing the image or changing the type of jpeg image.

    Ok nevermind, i found out how to do it.

    The problem was i was trying to attach an image instead of a direct IMG link.

    So for anyone else that's having any problems with it, just copy and paste the IMG code in your post and the size does not matter.

    Although i limited my image sizes to a maximum of 206kb, so people with slow net can still load the images.

    and it looks great, see
