Hello Beanies, You make some fantastic posts: formatting, pics, gifs, etc. I can’t find any instructions on this site. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you!
Just forget the long document, it’s not that complicated 🤣
If you look at the quick (short) tutorial, you basically just need an image address to post a pic, put it in between a pair of angle brackets and quotation mark and the fixed html tags 😁
The image address you can even get directly from sites like Pinterest, so it’s quite easy.
And I’m sure I don’t keep myself updated, so I think except for SNS platforms where we can easily upload our contents, don’t forums still work like DB, i.e. to post a pic you’ll need to put it on some hosting site first before “calling” it to where you want it to show up?
Anyway, preparing a post for my fanwall is actually something I quite enjoy 😂
That is exactly what I thought the first time I tried it! 😂 And it does need me to think about and make my post beforehand. Not to mention that some of the sites mentioned only work on my wifi while the others only work on my phone data! So that is a whole other set of hoops added in for me!
Thank you @kurama. That was also very helpful. I ran my baby post as a test, and it caught a missing quote. Oh gosh, and to think I thought who needs to learn HTML these days. 🙂

Thank you, Kurama.
As I lost some pics in the original post that you gave the link here, I have updated it in a newer post here
https://dramabeans.com/members/claire2009/activity/1505918/
And here is a quick tutorial that basically gives you the same information about posting pics

Sorry, sorry. I meant no disrespect. Mega respect as I said. (Maybe the whole site architecture is from 1999 so it follows 🙂
Lemme try a baby post. Thank you.

You can try your post there :

You will see if your gifs work or not. The layout is like you want, etc.
