Just added one more thing to the post, if you want some text to show while the image is still loading, you can add the alt property to your img tag, so that it will be like:

Code:
[img alt=image loading...]https://i.imgur.com/lUr20xA.jpg[/img] 


This way people will know there is some image to expect, and not thinking that your post is empty.

Anybody knows how to add youtube videos in this forum? is there any special code for it?

Yeah seems that we cannot directly add youtube videos in the post itself. What you can do is create a text or image and link the url to the actual youtube video.

You can't embed a YouTube video. You can only use the url tag to redirect the users to your video.

What some users/ICO do is add a fake youtube thumbnail image with a link to the video. But the video won't play in the thread page.

You neglect to mention the fact that Newbies cannot post images - they would require a copper membership to do that. Try harder. Smiley

Edit - you also neglect to mention the imgur link MUST have a jpeg/png extension. Linking to an "album" in imgur using img tags fails with proxy error.

Thank you so much for pointing this out! I just added these two points to my post above.  Smiley

Adding image in your post is not that hard, you just need to follow these steps (please note that you need to be in a position higher than Newbie):

  • Step 1: Upload your image to site like https://imgur.com/. Then there are two ways:
    • For image that are not in ".png", you can simply right click on the image to Copy Image Address/Location. You will get some link like this: https://i.imgur.com/lUr20xA.jpg
    • Another way works for all image format, you can click the dropdown list on the right of the "Copy" button, then choose "Get share links", and copy the one for "BBCode(Forums)".
  • Step 2: Use the following code in your post, your image will show:

Code:
[img]https://i.imgur.com/lUr20xA.jpg[/img] 

This is what you will see after you insert the above code in your post:

HOW TO RESIZE YOUR IMAGE?

You can add width and height to the code to resize image, the code will look like this:
Code:
[img width=200 height=150 alt=image loading...]https://i.imgur.com/lUr20xA.jpg[/img] 

What you will see after resizing:
image loading...

You can also add alt property to the img tag so that even if your image is still loading, it will show some text so that the user knows there will be some image appear later.

 ******************************************************************************************************************************

HOW TO MAKE THE IMAGE CLICKABLE?


If you want your image to be clickable (once click redirect to another website), you can use the following code in your post:

Code:
[url=https://bitcointalk.org][img]https://i.imgur.com/lUr20xA.jpg[/img][/url]

This way once you click the image, it will take you to another website (in my example bitcointalk homepage). You can try below:





Note:
- Newbie CANNOT post image.
- imgur link MUST have a jpg/jpeg/png extension. Also link to an album in imgur will result in proxy error.


Hope this post will help a little bit. Thanks!  Smiley Smiley Smiley
