Step 1 - Visit the Imgur website and sign in:Visit the
Imgur website and log into your account, which is located in the upper-right of the following picture. Don't have an account? Then create one! Trust me, it's worth it.
Step 2 - Create your post:Select '
New Post', found in the upper-left of the following screenshot.
Step 3 - Upload your images:Once selected, a little window will pop up, as displayed below. If you've copied an image you can press CTRL+V to paste the image and upload directly to Imgur. If the image is saved on your desktop then select 'browse', this will open up your libraries.
Select the images that you want to upload by pressing CTRL and clicking the images one at a time in order to mass upload, once you've selected them, click on 'open', usually found in the bottom-right of the window
(I'm using Windows 7).
Step 4 - Copying the Image Address:Once uploaded, right click on the image and select 'Copy image address', which will copy the image url which you can use to upload here on the forums.
Step 5 - Applying the BB code.If you're uploading your image to the forums, such as your G&A thread, be sure to use the BB codes to save time. Here's the BB code you're going to need to select in order to upload your images.
Once you press that button a line of text will appear as

Simply paste the image address inbetween the brackets to successfully upload your image. It should look fairly similar to this.

Why should I create an account and what other benefits are there?
AlbumsIf you have an account and have mass-uploaded images before, Imgur will automatically sort them into albums for you. You can access your albums by hovering over your name in the top-right and selecting 'albums' that appears under your name.
Here's what it looks like when you access your albums.
Do note that I'm only showing a fraction of my albums as there'd be too many to show off, lol.It's worth noting that you have to name the albums yourself.
Imgur never removes your imagesThat's correct. Imgur will never remove your images
UNLESS you want to manually remove the images yourself, or if you violate the guidelines.
Posts = Albums. I have 156 albums, shocking.
