Can I scan any drawings done by hand onto my computer and post them here? If so, please tell me how.

Drawings are art, right.

Then yes...

I mean how can I get the scan file on to a post here. I seriously have no idea to do half of this. And I didn't find any topic about anything like this oddly enough... I guess I'll look some more if people attack me for posting an old topic...

After you scan your picture in and you edit it until you're content with it you save the image. I suggest either PNG or GIF. GIF guarantees the background being transparent depending on your program and image. And PNG is a better quality than GIF, but GIF is a better quality than JPEG.

Then you get online and you make an acount on a site like photobucket, the one I'm using, and you upload images on there. Photobucket will then, under the images, give you 3 things. The URL, which is just a link, the HTML code for posting an image which isn't traditionally used on forum sites. And then the third is the BBCode. It is what most people will use to post images, because all forums accept that.

In a post you can copy and past any of these three and if you choose the third one your image will be seen unless something strange happens. And I think PsyPoke accepts HTML, so you could post either of the bottom two for your image to show. Or if you just want a link post the first one.

I hope that made sense.

After scanning your picture and saving it in any format, you simply look for a file-hosting website, such as ImageShack, and upload your picture to the website.

You'll get the URL address for your hosted picture. You can either leave it that way or make your picture appear on your post by inserting the tags [img] and [img] right before and right after the URL address.

Example, this:



will come out like this:



Is that what you wanted?

EDIT: Crimson posted right before me. Oh, well, I'm still suggesting a different way of doing it, so meh.

Oh, cool, thanks alot! I'm gonna try to get my pictures in as soon as possible! Thanks again!
