    *** READ THIS *** How to upload Arena images

    It seems to be common that threads from more than a year ago end up having dead image links. This is due to people no longer using the server they hosted their images with.

    FlashKit has a Gallery set up where users can upload images of theirs onto the FK server and they will stay there forever. Hosting your Arena battle images there instead of on your own server would help eliminate the Dead Image Link problem. Its a little extra work for some but will make looking at old threads a lot betetr!

    How to upload an image:
    1. Go to the gallery: http://submissions.flashkit.com/cgi-bin/gallery/add.cgi
    2. Fill out all the info about your image
    3. Upload your image to the gallery
    4. Once uploaded, copy the image's URL and use that URL in your Arena post

    Images must be approved by an Admin before they show up. They will be approved daily

    How to embed an image in your post:
    Use the following format (excluding the "*" and putting your image URL instead of the "IMAGE URL" text):
    [*img]IMAGE URL[/img]


    Thanks,
    Danny

    Note that this will take up to a day for the images to show up. They need to be approved first

    If there is a rush on something, just shoot me a note and I'll get it made live ASAP. Unfortunately, due to the potential of spamming and inappropriate content (non G-rated), we're forced to have a validation system in place before the images are made live.

    Also, if there are any specific categories that you would like added, you can post those here or email me and we'll be happy to review the request.

    If there isnt a rush, you can always wait a day to post your image. For example, if you are in the calendar battle (and your not January) than waiting a day to post your image shouldn't be a big deal.
