Here's how to add a picture to your post on Revolution Online!

1. You cannot post to the site directly from your computer. You must first upload your picture to an online photo host, like Photobucket. Many including Photobucket are free.

2. Once you have uploaded the picture, compose your post. Above the Message box where you enter text, you will see a button that looks like two little mountains with a sun overhead. Click on that button and enter your picture URL.

3. That's it! You can also, from Photobucket and some other hosting services, directly copy a link with an img tag so you don't have to do the extra step #2 above.

To post a YouTube or vimeo video, simply copy and paste the url into your post, e.g http ://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpLcnAIpVRA (note: space added after http so that the url shows instead of video)
