    i have found a great universal thing to explain to new members how to embed pics, here it is.



    How to embed ur pics...

    first take them in theater simple really i recommened not in forge when u take the pics get them from a custom game... but


    1. Open up your Internet Browser (I use Firefox) and go to our dearly beloved
    Bungie.net, and go to My Stats/Find a Player.

    2. Then, go to the right of the screen, to "People Finder". Make sure that it is set to Halo 3, and type in your Xbox-Live Gamer tag. Then click "Search"

    3. You should then being on your Gamer Tag profile. Go to and click "Hi-Res screenshots".
    [​IMG]

    4. Find the Screenshot you wish to embed, and click on it. Also, make sure pop-ups are allowed from Bungie.net.

    5. A large version of the screenshot should come up in a separate window. Again, click the screenshot.

    6. This should come up, asking you what program to open the screenshot with, or to save it to disk. For simplicities sake, just check off "Save to Disk" and the click "OK".

    7. Depending what your preferences are, the picture could be saved to a number of places, if you are using Firefox, then this should come up. Click "Open" on the top one, which is more than likely the screenshot you are looking for.

    8. An image viewing program displaying the screenshot should come up. Click the save option, in this case a floppy disk icon.

    9.Save your image as a JPEG file, under a folder and name you can find later. Type the name in and click "Save".

    10. Congrats, now you have your screenshot on your computer. Now onto:

    Part 3: Signing up for a Photobucket account, and uploading your screenshot to the internet.





    1. Start by opening your internet browser, and going to Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket. Why Photobucket? Cause I find that Imageshack is a pain and people seem to get nothing but thumbnail pictures from it, if they do try to embed their screenshots. Once there, click "Join Now" cause IT'S FREE!

    2. Type in a username, and a password that you can remember. Then click "Next Step".
    [​IMG]




    3. Now fill the form out, when you are done, click "I accept. Sign me up!"
    Note that none of that information is true to me. That is not my name, or birthdate, or anything.
    [​IMG]




    4. Follow instructions from there.




    5.Go to Login on Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket, type in your username and password, and then click "Login".
    [​IMG]




    6. You should now be in your album. Find the section in the middle of the screen like the one below, and click "Choose Files", and make sure the size is set to 640x480.
    [​IMG]




    7. An "Open File" window comes up. Now find your screenshot where you saved it, click on it, and then click "Open". Note that you can select more than one image before click "Open" by clicking your first image, and then (while holding down the SHIFT key) click on the other images you wish to add.
    [​IMG]




    8. Give it time to save the screenshot on the internet. Click "Cancel" to stop uploading.
    [​IMG]




    9. When it is done, this screen will come up. Give it a title and a description, or just skip that, and click "save and continue"
    [​IMG]




    10. And now your screenshot is on the internet, ready to be embedded.




    Part 4: Embed your image in your post.





    1. Go to your "my albums" on your photobucket page, which is located in the top navigation bar. Then, scroll down the page until you find your screenshot.







    2. Click on the text in the space next to "IMG Code". This will automatically copy that link to your clipboard.
    [​IMG]






    3. Go to post your Map Thread, and right click/Paste the IMG code (an image code is the direct link url of an image, in between [./img], but without the ".")[/SIZE]

    Awesome. The only problem is that I can't really see the blue text on the new FH skin. Just make that readable, lawl. Make one for Imageshack.

    lulz, you can just link to my thread...

    But I am flattered non-the-less.
    (as for the blue text, I wrote it before the new layout, and not quite so sure if I want to go back in and fix it, since most people still use the old layout, and you can just highlight it to read it.)

    You don't have to save to disk, make sure you list that you can save it under other files.
