links
work when an image or video is posted elsewhere on the web (ie youtube)
and simply need you to add the correct BBcode and URL to your post's text
we have buttons above the posting/edit box to make this simple for you
example, to add a youtube video

find your video and get the URL, decided where in your post you want it to appear.
then click the add video button 6002, enter the URL, click OK and the video BBcode will appear in your text
and will look something like
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7wQUd-HgFs&feature=relmfu
(when you finish you post by clicking Submit Reply, the video will appear in your post)

6001 6003 =

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7wQUd-HgFs&feature=relmfu




To add an image follow the above instructions but use the 6004 button to add the image code.

Attachments
attachments work when the file you want to post is on your own computer
(files hosted elsewhere on the internet may also be attached if you wish)
there is an upload limit for different member types so you may not be able to add large files
this could be a picture, video, even a word/notepad file

The attachment manager will guide you through adding a file:
