How do I upload an image ?
In your new or excisting thread/post you can attach an image. Click the button "Go Advanced". Beneath the text input there is "Additional Options" Window -> "Attach Files" -> "Manage Attachments". Press "Manage Attachments.

A new window will pop up. At the top, "Upload File from your Computer". Choose your file. Press the "Upload" button and just wait. The system will tell you if it did work or why not.

If you didn't get any error messages, close the attachement window and Submit your thread/post. If you did this correctly there will be a thumbnail of your picture at the end of your thread/post.

Filesize ?
Mortal Online Official Forums does only allow max 1MB of total attached images per account.

The image cannot exceed 97.7 KB. Compress with JPEG or lower the resolution when publishing the image to the forum.

How do I show my attached image in original size directly in my post/thread ?
You upload your image as described first in this guide. Click the thumbnail and copy the URL for the image. Edit your post and place your selection (mouse click) where you would like to show your image. Then Click on the Icon/Image Button (Yellow with mountains) in your Post Editor and paste the URL. Then Press "OK".

You have already exceeded your maximum Attachment Size (1MB) and you want to upload new images ?
Go to "User CP" in the menu bar and to the bottom left click: "Miscellaneous" -> "Attachments". Delete some of the old attachments so you get free upload space for your account. Remember that when you delete your old attachments they are gone from our system forever. So be careful.
