i'm not too up on computing but i'll have a go. THANKS

I've seen this question asked before, so here's a quick pictorial guide for those less tech-savvy. Gonna put this as a blog post too, for future reference.

1) Go to imgur.com, click "Upload Images"

2) You get this nifty dialogue. I suggest browsing your computer to find the image, unless you have a better alternative (you can drag and drop the file straight onto the window if you want).

3) Browse and double-click on your picture.

4) Once you've selected your image(s), hit "Start Upload". If you select multiple images, you'll be given the option to make an album out of them.

5) We did it! Your image is uploaded. Now, on the right side, find the "Direct Link" box. Click that, and press CTRL+C (or right click and press "Copy") to copy the URL.

6) Now that we've got the link, all you have to do is go to wherever you want to post it, and click on the little image button so you get this box. Simply paste the link into the box and hit "Insert"!

i was woundering if anybody could help.I've been trying to upload a photo and after it reaches 100% a red window appears saying that file is too large ! Any help would be appreciated.


If you are using MS Windows, the application PAINT will resize images.
