How to add images to your classic castle posts!

I made a quick video with step-by-step instructions, since this seems to be a common problem for new members.

Can you do the same thing with mocpages?
You've got to ask yourself one question,"Do I feel lucky?" Well do ya, punk?

MOC Pages is even easier. Just right-click on your image, select "copy image location", and paste like I showed on the Flickr video. The only thing you may run into is that the images might be too large. This is the main reason that I like Flickr. It re-sizes your image and gives you several to choose from so that there is always one that's the right size.

Does that help?

Yes it does. Thank you for the help. :) I probably will use it in the future. It's much better than a link.

Good stuff! I remember when I was starting off here, how I couldn't figure out for the life of me how to do this. I second Forest boy! :)
