Adding photos to your post can be a bit confusing... so I've created this how-to guide to help!
First: You will need to upload your photos to an image sharing website. Several popular free sites are flickr.com and imgur.com. There are many others that will work, so do your research and choose which one works best for you.
Second: After you create an account and your images are uploaded, share them by copying the "BBcode" and pasting it in your post. The code will consist of the URL to your photo with IMG tags in brackets. Now your image is ready to post!
(You can also use the forum's "Insert image" button and paste the direct URL).
If you have any questions regarding the process, feel free to reply to this thread. 😎

When I tried inserting an image I took with a caption on a forum, the image did not even show up. I saw your post and it looks like you are trying to link an image from Flickr. Flickr makes it easy, click on the “right arrow” sharing button directly under the image (assuming you are on desktop and not mobile view). Then copy the BBCode and post it in your reply. You may need to be logged in if you are sharing your own image and if you have restrictions on who can share your photos. But if you are sharing a non-Flickr image, you need the image source code ending with .jpg or .png in the URL. Let us know if you need any more help  . |

And how do I made more than one post in the same thread? Looks like your pics now work! 😁 You can click “reply” to add more posts to your thread. You can also make additional threads for different topics or collections of pictures. |

And do replies go in the bottom of the thread and not in between other replies in the thread? I'm asking this because I had to go somewhere else and had to stay there for a few hours.

This is correct. Replies will show in chronological order based on when they were posted. There isn’t any way to reorder replies to a thread. |

I saw that there's an option to copy the Embed code, and the website has an embed feature in photos and videos. <iframe width="907" height="510" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/MDIf_DqOOUA" title="[4K] – Flying Southwest To Every Hawaiian City In One Day – The Southwest Inter-Island Challenge!" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

superbrownsheep: Our website should automatically embed youtube videos when you post the URL without the code. There is a second method that you can use by clicking the play button above your reply/edit post box (▶️) and you can insert a video that way as well. Our website uses BBcode which has a slight learning curve and is a bit different than HTML. Thankfully our forum software is smart enough to understand and automatically embed most content, however there are still some things you have to do the old fashioned way (such as posting pics).
