| wow looks like we picked exactly the wrong time to do an image based contest, oh well too late now.
I have figured it out and if your still having trouble email me your entry and screen name and i'll host it at my photo bucket account and send you the link or just post it myself with your screen name on top if you prefer.
my email is in my profile now.
Kae Yoss I have your entry and uploaded it to photobucket so just give the word and Ill post it. ShadowlordXT i can't find yours I think you'll have to recreate it. Mikey chraal your pic link just takes me back to maxminis so I can't find it either so try again or send it to me and i'll post it.

Gallandv......LOL, it is funny .
I have found with photo bucket you just copy and paste the tag link no other alteration nessecary when in the basic text format and the picture posts with no problem.
However for your entry,it may be above pg13 so might be beter if you just post the link I really don't want to get banned . | | | |

| After having had some trouble posting, here is how i went about it. There's apparently a typo in zenthrus' post, because it didn't work when i used it, but visage's link (copy and pasted below) did work. So here it is: 1) Go to http://happyhikers.ca/OtherStuff/maxminisPictureHosting.php and upload your image. No registration is required, this is a one-step process (this is in the picture upload FAQ of the maxminis web site, and the site you upload to is hosted and kindly lent by one of the maxminis members). Once you've done that, your picture will have the following URL: http://happyhikers.ca/OtherStuff/PictureUploads/YOURFILE.JPG (assuming it's a JPEG file). 2) Switch from Rich Text Editor to Basic Text Box. 3) type in the following: <_img src="http://happyhikers.ca/OtherStuff/PictureUploads/YOURFILE.JPG"_> 4) remove the _'s That should work.

Everybody email your name and address to Arcabious and your bluespawn promo will be in the mail the next day. Enjoy, maijstral and arcabious | | | |
