Some members asked about the ways to include pictures or photos inside their posts. We have actually quite a few methods, using free hosting websites, using Transformers.com.my Picture Galleries, hotlinking to other website's pictures.

For new members or other who are not familiar with forum posting techniques, you can learn some here:-

1) Using free hosting sites like PHOTOBUCKET, IMAGESHACK, FLICKR, SMUGMUG, PBASE etc.

Let's start with Imageshack and basically every other photo hosting works the same...

Step1. Login to your imageshack account and goto the Upload page, select the picture/image file from your PC and click on the HOST IT (or Upload button)

Step2. After you have successfully uploaded the image, they will show you a list of options to include that image to anywhere you like (websites, forums, blogs etc).

Step3. Select the Direct Linking option to include the whole picture straight away in the post. If you wish to use the thumbnail pictures, you can select the Forum option.

Step4. Go to your Transformers post and click the Image button (as circled below). There will be a pop-up window to let you enter the url address to the image. Just copy the whole address there and click OK. This will include your picture nice and smooth!!
