This is only going up now because the thought that forum newbies never occurred to me. So here is a step-by-step guide on how to post posts. With pictures. So now you have no excuses to not post.
When you log-in, you are logging into a forum. This is the forum.
Now on this forum are several sub-forums. These are sub-forums.
When you are on a subforum, there is a button on the upper right hand corner that says "new thread". This is that button.
Now after you click on that button, you get a screen like this.
From that pic, you can see where the title of a thread goes, unimportant stuff you don't need to care about, the box where you type stuff, and tags that are used for posting images; youtube vids; italicized, bolded, underlined,strikedthrough text, and website URLs. All nifty things that help to enrich your foruming experience.
And when you're done you click on the "Post Message" button at the bottom.
Simple, no?
Also, to reply to an already existing thread, click on the "reply" button to get the nice reply window with all the extra options.
You can also click the "modify" button to edit your posts and the "delete" button to delete it. You can also use the blatantly obvious "Quick Reply" box if you scroll further down. You can still use tags in the Quick Reply box in case you didn't know.
And for the most part, you just need to play around with the forums for a bit to figure this out. So do it. Post and play around. Srsly.
And in conclusion:
ADVERTISING ADVERTISING ADVERTISING ADVERTISING ADVERTISING.
