Nobody likes massive pictures that make pages take forever to load, so here at RG we would like it if you kept images in post's under a resonable size and with advatar pictures please do not use innapropreate images.

Please keep the width of all photos 600 pixels or less. Height does not matter but width does. If you are posting pictures bigger than that, you will receive a PM asking you to resize them.I know it can seem daunting when you first join a forum but it is easy when you know how so i thought I would post this here to give you a helping hand. Firstly get yourself an account on www.photobucket.com or www.imgspot.com/ or www.tinypic.com. Next upload your pigtures there by clicking on the browse button and it will take you to your computer desktop where you can serach for the pics you want to add. Then click submit. When it has been added you can then copy and paste the pics into your posts by using the link under the pic that starts with Choose the one with http:// if you want to use them as your avatar (reMember avatars need to be quite small I think it is 80 x 80 pixels) It's really easy once you know how, that is how I was the first forum I joined but someone kindly explained it to me and I never looked back. Good luck and happy posting! If you need help, just PM Sollyrules/Georgina, me or one of the moderators!

When your pigtures are first uploaded onto photobucket the can still be quite large. If you find that you post a pic on here and it is too big to view properly:
- Go back to your photobucket account and click on 'Edit' above the picture you posted. - Choose "25% of original size" and save.
As if by magic, your picture on here will shrink to a better viewing size witout you needing to re-post the pigture!

If you want to share your pigtures (please do!) you may post them in any section of the sight. We feel that putting pictures in your posts makes reading them more enjoyable! So go for it. All you need to do is upload them to the web www.photobucket.com is a great picture hosting site. (Or the other image sites will do) You then need to link to where they are stored on the internet. Look at the buttons that appear at the top of a post you are writing (they don;t show if just reading or in quick reply) the fourth one along on the second row is to add a picture. (See... it looks like one!) Click the button and this tag will come up [img][/img] What you need to do then is find the full address of where the picture is stored eg: img413.imageshack.us/img413/696/img00061hd4.jpg if you are not using photobucket, right click on the pic where it is stored on the net and copy the address/ url and paste between the brakets if you use photobucket you don;t need to use the button... just copy and paste the bottom line of the 3 lines of code underneath your photos And then ...
