Title: Hello this is my first post
Post by: Trooper on November 12, 2007, 12:07:19 PM

Hi to all of you,

I just wanted to introduce myself and comply with the Professor's request to post to prove I am not an evil spammer,  :D  :o

The forum is extremely interesting, I have been building up Back of Beyond armies for a while, and now I am getting intrigued and tempted by Pulp gaming. I have been collectoing and painting Sci-Fi figures for a while and I am currently building a large Urban environment for some serious street fighting. Some great figures to be seen here, so keep up the good work, I hope to be boring you all with some of my efforts soon, as soon as I can figure out how to get them on here that is.  :lol:

Welcome Trooper.

To post images here (and in most online forums - fora? - of this type), you need to create an account with a free image hosting site.
I use photobucket.com, but there are several out there...

Once you've opened an account, you can then upload pics from your PC to your photobucket (or other) web space.

Each image you upload is given a unique image address - effectively a URL.

You copy and paste this image address into the text of your post on the forum, and hey presto - when you preview or submit your post, the image will appear in it, seamlessly piped in from your image host!

It's awfully clever.
Just don't ask me how it works.  :wink:

(Please - nobody explain. I'm happy with the mystery of it...   :mrgreen: )
