How to Upload Images to Epicmafia

almost 7 years

I see this getting asked a lot, so I thought rather than people having to explain to people over and over, there's something easy to link to newer users who don't know.


How to upload images to forum comments, lobby wall comments and profile comments:

First, make sure your image has been uploaded to one of Epicmafia's approved image-hosting sites (listed at the bottom of the thread). I like to use imgur out of convenience.

After uploading an image to imgur, the site provides you with a handy way to shorten the uploading process. Just click this little drop-down menu and select "Get share links".

This display will pop up, and underneath the "BBCode" heading, you can click "Copy" to easily copy the BBCode to upload your image to your clipboard. However, if you aren't using imgur you can skip this step.

If you've been using imgur, you can just CTRL+V the copied text into your desired posting location, but if not, make sure you have a direct link to the desired image hosted on one of the aforementioned hosting sites. Place the link to the image inside two boxes which say [img] and [/img]. So the final result should look like "[img]yourimagelink[/img]", just like it's displayed in the screenshot above. Once that's all done, just hit enter and voila, your image has been posted!


How to upload images to thread OPs and profile biographies:

Click on this little image icon in the thread editor.

This little box will pop up. Here you need to place a direct link to an image hosted on one of Epicmafia's approved image-hosting sites (listed at the bottom of the thread).

You will be left with things like this in your thread. The parts highlighted in red need to be left as they are (though the description inside the square brackets can be edited so that you don't forget which image it contains) and the parts highlighted in blue are the links to the images themselves. You may change the links highlighted in blue to other valid image links if you want to change the image of the corresponding number, though in most cases it's safe to just leave them alone.

Once you have pressed the edit button on your profile, a box will open and from there the process is the same as uploading images to a thread OP. Just click the image icon and paste in the links.

The only image hosting sites that are approved for use on the site are:
