Little advice for posting and hosting screenshots. Dont link them to the other hosts unless they are thumbnails. This saves loading time for things that nobody will click (you would think that anyway.)

Copy the URL (the bar at the top where you type www.blablabla.com etc etc just for those of you who didn't know that Razz )

Two methods for getting the same result. You can either type in the wrapping code which is:
Code:
[img]paste image url here[/img]
or you can click the button above your reply box (this one -> Posting your /screenshots Picture

Using Dark'Hunters latest post as an example, this is what it looks like with everything in it.

You can remove certain parts of it to remove annoying banners and such.

I got rid of everything except this:
Code:

Giving you this:

As you can see, there is no-longer a banner or mouse-over, saving page load time.

Sure it's a little time-consuming but think of the ones with low spec PCs*.
