How to make a thread with pictures (Beginners)
I´ve seen alot of threads in the WoW forum section, where theres spots where theres supposed to be pictures, but people upload their pictures as an attachement instead of using the "Insert Image" button.
And ofc, as the title says, this is mostly for new guys on the forums, because most of the threads with pending approval dont got much rep/new account.
As an example, heres a picture named "The best picture on the internet", theres no me in there, so I assume the people who made this picture don´t exacly know what their on about.
How do you upload a picture right away, so you don´t have to wait for attachment approval?
IS EASY :O
#1 Head over to Imgur.com or any other hosting website (
Im gonna use Imgur as an example
#2 Sign up and login
#3 Find the picture you want to upload, for exampe if its a WoW screenshot. You will normally find these in the C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Screenshots
#4 Once uploaded, you will get something like this :
#5 Find the "Direct Link" and copy it, head back to Ownedcore where you´re gonna post your new thread.
#6 Now find the "Insert Image" box amongst all those small icons, and press it. Once there, you will get to a page looking like this :
Click on "From URL" and uncheck the "Retrieve remote file and reference locally" and paste the Direct Link to your picture in there.
#7 Press done. You now have a picture on your thread and you don´t have to wait for attachment approval
Note: You can put your picture between this if you cba to click on that box :3 [IMG]here[/IMG]

To clarify, a lot of the posters that leave broken links in their posts are bots. Help the mods out and report the post to have it removed, the broken links actually do something like crawling for data (cant remember exactly when someone explained it about 7 months ago).

+1 for imgur. Great site.
Much better than imageshack which people seem to love quite a bit, for some reason.

People like you suck. Posting constructively is better.
Also for anyone who wants to screen capture and upload elements of their screen very easily, look into TinyGrab.
You install the client on your computer, and then press Ctrl+Shift+4 and a cursor appears on your screen where you can draw a box around what you want to upload. You draw the box, and it automatically uploads the image to it's server and puts the direct URL onto your copy/paste clipboard. You can also Ctrl+Shift+3 for full screen, or Ctrl+Shift+5 for active window, and of course you can change the hotkey configurations too.
With this you can screenshot + crop + upload + and paste the direct URL link into [img ][/img ] tags all within 3 seconds.
It also shows you a view count on the number of times the image has been viewed, quick sharing to social media, tagging notes on the image, etc.
