Your compliments will motivate me to have more good posts. Thank you

Wow this is very useful indeed for newbies. Felt to be a newbie now that I've been away for decades.  I'm quite impressed that the BCT community is growing and been very helpful with each other

Wow! Never thought we can post images right away even though our rank is not that high. Thanks for the help! I really wanted to know that technique before because I posted a thread for awareness of Binance fake website. But I ended up sending a link to my printscreen. But good call for this. Thanks a lot.

I edited my post to make it more complete. Thanks for the advice of everyone

Thanks for pointing out my mistakes, I will try to improve it further

I noticed you didn't speak at all about the content of posts. I suppose it should be a given that providing meaningful, relevant, and coherent content in your post will make your text effects, embedded image links, and hyperlinks all that more useful when you post.

Is that a fair assumption on my part? Because I know it's a fair expectation.

Thank you so much mate, it is very helpful specially for newbies like me. I need to learn it and try to make it practice... Thank you

But you have to be JR.Member will be able to upload pictures to Bitcointalk

(To post an image you must have at least a Jr.member rank)
You only need to post the 30 accepted posts you will be onto JR. Member

Oh, Brand new, newber add image but not show 

code insert is BB Code, i did it,

update: uh oh, code is not working for me.

You can point out the lack of other people's fever means you pay close attention to the small things you are very interested in helping others develop, that is a good thing. Please try to create an article that you think will help other people I'm sure there will be many people interested, try it will succeed, good luck

Thank you, what you share really will be useful. I will note it and try to improve

It's basic information but I think that many new members may not know about it, so, thanks for making this guide. You also can upload code to resize image. But I recomend to not overuse all these effects and styling. It can make your post difficult to read and some members may put you on ignore list.

cool post!! thank you for the helpful information, a lot of users always say that it is impossible for us to upload photos or practically do anything!!

whoa .. this is a cool post
thanks to you for sharing this very useful post, the more I know my current knowledge. I am very happy if we share with each other useful things. May god bless you

Wonderful creation of yours. How could you do that as newbie too?

Well, thanks for this it means a lot for all newbies and maybe some senior members here.

Wish you the best! Keep up the good work! Good luck.

As fellow users of this forum (especially as fellow Jr.member) should not we have to help each other? and perhaps I do not have the idea for making a good post like yours, and rather than just criticizing the shortcomings of others, it would be better if we share the knowledge I know even if it is just a little, and hopefully with this kind of discussion, it will make us to be better in the next time.

Thanks!

Very good help for new comers like me here! Specially about the image.

Thank you for helping me improve my writing

Of course we can assume that Jr.member is also a newbie, but for a newbie who reads this thread with not carefully, and they have not read the term & condition, and other rules they (Newbie rank) surely think they can post an image...

So I think in this thread especially in the section of...
You need add a condition like "To post an image you must have at least a Jr.member rank"..

Thanks, not everyone is good with HTML. 

Thanks, your posts will be very useful especially for Newbie like me.

This is how I usually use to upload pictures to my posts

You follow the order from 1> 2> 3
Copy BBCode (Forum) paste into the image post will be displayed

I was also a newbie and had to find and research the forum for a long time before I could understand how to create a new complete article.
I created this article so that novices can more easily manipulate to create a complete article
How to create bold, italic and underlined text?

Using BBCode tags you can quickly change the style of the text. Consider the following methods:
To bold text, place it in the [b ] [/ b] tag, for example:

will become Hello!

To underline the use of the pair of [u ] [/ u], for example:


will become Good morning!

To create text in italics, use the [i ] [/ i] tag, for example


will show up This is great!

Strikethrough

Glow

Shadow

Preformatted Text

Left Align

Centered

Right Align

Insert Flash

How to change the color or size of the text?
To change the color or size of the text, the following BBCode tags will be used. Remember that the display depends on the viewer's browser and the system:
To change the text color, place it in the [color =] [/ color] tag. You can specify an acceptable color name such as: red, blue, yellow ... or use hex color codes like #FFFFFF, # 000000 ... For example, to create a text with red letters you can Use as follows
will give the same result Hello!
Changing the size of the text is the same as above but using the [size =] [/ size] tag. The use of this tag depends on the interface that the user has chosen to use in the system, but we recommend that you use the size as a typical counter value with the unit as a percentage, starting at 5. (very small) up to 50 (very large) by default. For example:


will create SMALL

whereas:


will be BIG BIG

Can I combine the formatting cards together?
Yes! Surely you can do this. For example, to create someone's attention, you could write:
it will show LOOK AT ME!

Links to other websites
The BBCode command tag supports many ways to generate better Uniform Resource Indicators (URIs) than other types of URL links.
The first pair of cards to use is [url =]  [/ url]. Anything you enter after the = sign becomes the content of that tag and is interpreted as a URL. For example, to link to the bitcointalk.org  website you will use the following:
A link will be generated as follows: Welcome bitcointalk!
If you want to make a link visible to its own URL, do the following:
The link generated will be: http://bitcointalk.org

Add an image in the post (To post an image you must have at least a Jr.member rank)
The BBCode tags in the phpBB software incorporate the image tag in the post. There are two important things to remember when using this tag: Many people do not appreciate using too many images in the article and secondly, the image you use in the article must exist on the web, It can not be the image on your computer unless your computer is a Web server. To display the image, you must place its URL in the [img ] [/ img] tag
. For example



You can also create a link as an image when using the above combination with the [url ] [/ url] tag. For example:

will create to:


Hope it will help you
