How to Post / Upload Images
Important Note: It is recommended that images be uploaded here. This ensures that the topic stays relevant. Privately hosted images will disappear from the forum if the remote image is deleted, the account is deactivated, or the host shuts down.
1. Must be in .jpg, .jpeg, ,png, or .gif format.
2. File names must be unique on the same day or you will overwrite the previous image with the same name.
3. Please give your images meaningful file names, they can be rename when you upload. They can be searched and reused later here, there is no need to upload again later if you need it.
Images should be cropped closely to the coin.
Also make sure your image is oriented right side up. Please, this is very important.
Uploading an Image to a Post
1. You must either be posting from the
new topic or
reply to topic links. You cannot upload images on
a quick reply.
2. You will see a green camera icon below the area where you type in your post. It looks like this

. Click on that icon and a window should pop up that looks like this...

If you don't see this box, check that your pop-up blocker is not blocking it or it's hiding behind another window. There are several instances on the forum that use legitimate pop-ups, so you may want to mark Coin Community as "safe". You will not get any advertising pop-ups from Coin Community.
3. Click on the "browse" button and navigate to and then select the image you want to upload and click "open"; then click "upload file". Behind the scenes, the code to have the image displayed will be added to your post/reply editing box.
4. Click on either Upload another file or Close this window to go back to editing.
5. After you finish editing and click "post your reply", then images will be displayed.
