September, 2016: Robot Companion
 

Hi all...

Whether it's small and cute or large and full of weapons, you can always count on your Robot Companion to get you out of a tight spot! This month's competition requires you design a character and their mechanized pal. Storytelling and originality are key!

Good luck!

Image uploading
 

Hi. Another interesting challenge, should be fun to see everyones results.
I would again like to ask for some help with how to upload images full sized to the forum please (if I get a good idea to paint for this challenge). Last challenge I used the little picture icon above where we type and only got a thumbnail. I was told to upload to a host site and add the url to some code but I have no idea where this code is. Can anyone please explain where to access it, do I add it to code here or on the host site, or is there no actual existing code to add the url to and I just simply have to type something into the body of the post? I really hope someone can explain it to me in idiot proof simple terms:rolleyes:. Thanks.

Hi Angie!
 

Well, it's two basic steps.

1- Enter the site below and upload your image. It will create a link. Copy that.
www.imageshack.com

2- Start a reply. Write "[img]", without the quotation marks. Paste the link you just copied, no spaces between the link and the [img]. Then, with no spaces either, write "[/img]" (no quotation marks, again). Click Preview Post. If your image shows big, than you're good to go, and can press Submit. If not, check again what you wrote.

An example of what you would write: [img]blablablabla[/img]

Being "blablabla" the link you copied in the imageshack site :D

I hope that helps.

Cheers!

Thank you so much for explaining it in such a clear way, now I get it :) \o/

Hi everyone, my first time in this forum :)
Are we supposed to post wips as well, before the final picture?

Not much free time now a days, I'm afraid. Here's my entry.
Hope to see lots of great artwork popping up soon. :)
