How to use your personal image gallery

One of the few luxuries we have on the web site is image hosting. Any member can upload an image to use in their posts. Those images are saved right here on the site...no Photo Bucket, no Image Shack, no eBay...we're not relying on anyone but ourselves.

And every image you upload is added to your personal image gallery so you can use it again later. As such...

Don't upload the same photo over and over

If there's an image of a logo or photo you use a lot in your posts, you don't need to keep uploading it. Just go into your image gallery and pick it.


Upload once, gallery twice

After you upload an image once, to use it again, just pick the Choose from gallery option instead of uploading.

That will open your personal image gallery and you can select any image you've previously uploaded. And the gallery includes every image you've uploaded, just browse until you find the one you want.

It's that easy. No need to keep uploading the same photos over and over again. Plus, you can check out your personal gallery at anytime from your account dashboard. Just choose Images from the side menu. 


We've tried to make it easy to share photos and hopefully this little feature helps.

If you need more help or if something doesn't seem to be working right, just send a PM or email and we'll do our best to help you out.

A little PSA bump for anyone not familiar with using the image gallery here on the site.

I've been seeing a lot folks uploading the same couple photos over and over to use in their posts. Yes, it works, but it's recommended that you use you gallery instead.
