To insert an image from your computer, you have to upload it to a site like imageshack. Then all you have to do is to put the web address on the forum from your profile page.

On forums, the tags you must use for each link are [img] and [/img]. They must be pasted to the link without spacing.

On your profile, you have to use the exact link to the site where you uploaded your image by using the "image" button on your profile page.

A hyperlink allows you to use just a word or a phrase you can click on to be redirected to a web page, for example the page of one of your horses.

On forums, the tagging system is the same as the one used for the images, in this case, it's [url] and [/url] .

To hide the URL and use only a word or phrase as a link, proceed as follows: [url=address you want to redirect to] word that you want to display and then, without inserting a space, close the tag [/url]

On your profile page, use the "link" button and just enter the URL to where you want to redirect. To create a hyperlink, write the text you want to display, select it before using the button for creating the link, then enter the URL in the box that appears.
