I. How to post a link, image, or hyperlink. -------- a. How to post a link: This is a very simple one. If you see something you would like to share with us, look on the top of your screen. You'll see a link (ex. www.example.com/). Scroll your cursor over it, and highlight the whole link. Right click, and choose copy. Then go to create a message and right click, then paste. --------- b. How to post an image: Simple also. Now, it's the same as a link. Except, the link should lead to an image. Copy and paste, but then add: [img.] at the beginning and [/img.] (with no periods) at the end of the link. ------- c. How to post a hyperlink. Again, it's simple. Put [urd=http://www.your-site.com/] at the beginning of the word. Then add [/url] at the end of your word, so it'll look like this: [urd=http://www.your-site.com]My Site![/url] (urd is on purpose).

II. How to modify your profile
Click profile on the icon below the banner. Then on the top you will see Modify Profile. Click on it. From there, I'll let you decide what to do. It's pretty straight-forward from there.

III. How to use the ubbc buttons (with demonstrations)
------ a. B B stands for bold. To use bold put [ b ] [ /b ] ------ b. I I stands for italic. To use italics put [ i ] [ /i ] ------ c. U U stands for underline. To use underline put [ u ] [ /u ] ------ d. S S stands for strike through. To use strikethrough put [ s ][ /s ] ------ e. To save some time, click on the others and experiment in a test thread.
P.S: Don't use the spaces for the codes.

IV. How to upload an image
I'd recommend using tinypic or photobucket. To start, right click on an image. Choose save image as. Then, save it, and it will download. Then go to photobucket or tinypic. Click upload, and find the image. Choose it, a choose upload. There you go!

I hope you've got the hang of it now. If I got anything incorrect please correct me. I tend to overload on the mistakes. Thanks for reading, and if you need a How To on something else put in a word.
