I need some advice 

Hello who ever reads this ^^ Thank you for looking at my question. Here we go:
I'm working on a guide and it's becoming pretty long. I also took some screenshots and now I got a total (inlucing one picture per skill) of 17 pictures and it might go up to 20. That are a lot of pictures and I was wondering if I could put them in some folder on imageshack (it looks real messy otherwise). Or do you know an alternative to imageshack?

Please help cus I really don't feel like uploading 20 images =\

~Blazings

P.S. I also made a vid and it's perfect. Than I came to the conclusion that unregisterd Fraps only records 30 seconds un-registerd >.< Wraaah!

Well you can try photobucket.com allows you to upload many images at once and is very quick.

RE: I need some advice 

we''ll i use photobucket myself , and it does not support folder upload , it does support multifile upload , but only at a certain amount of MB's. Unless u are registert and paying then u have unlimited acces.

Why not make a guide trough Photoshop or Paint, convert that to a decent image file, and then upload it to photobucket or anyother online sharing thinghy.

hope this was helpfull

greetz and good luck on the guide, goldendragon

yes, i do too, infact that's what i'd suggest, not photobucket or imageshack.

if you use gameamp to upload your pics to they will never be deleted unless you do it yourself.

i'm currently sitting at 141 images in my gameamp image gallery, it's very easy to use, and yea, space seems to be unlimited, and it's 100% free. :D

hopefully it's not an Rt Farming. :P jking.

anyway, grats on the 12 sheets, finally a guide that will make my long-winded ones look quick and easy to read! :P

my average guide is 3-6 pages of text in word at 12 font, just typing away. and about 6-10 pics so when i saw this i needed to blink twice then look again! i can't wait to see it Blazings.

RE: I need some advice 

If your skill images are just the picture on your bar and not action shots, you can always link the image to Wiki or GA's photos. That would clear out 8 pictures. That's what I did in mine, I liked to the Wiki images for all but about 3 pictures.

RE: I need some advice 

if your looking for a place like photo bucket a good suggestion where you can upload bulk or perhaps you want to have an attractive galery you could send people to if they want to see the pictures... http://www.flickr.com/ you can put a deion with each photo and make a the thing an aditional aspect of the guide perhaps. idealy they would be best on gameamp servers as mentioned they would be there for a very long time. perhaps using the tags you could make the guide in the same way but having lots of images on a guide could slow down the whole page. One way of getting allot of images into the guide would be to make a smaller copy of the picture and use it as a thumbnailso if people want a better look they can click for bigger.


the tag in this is
CODE
[URL=web addy of the picture your linking to then [IMG] the web addy of the thumbnail and close both tags with [/IMG][/URL]

example [URL=http://img293.imageshack.us/my.php?image=alexthekidstoneod9.jpg][IMG]http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/2436/alexthekidstoneod9.th.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Much more reliable then 3rd party sites that go down every once in a while.

RE: I need some advice 

@Everdream. I have just been typing in the "add a guide" section and copy & pasted it into a notepad file. This way I could preview it and work on it later (by saving the HTML). I just selected the whole preview and pasted it into word, so I think that should be font 12 too than? And it's not really the pictures that make it so long. The biggest pics are in-game screen wich I reduced to 512px in height.

In the end I used photobucket. It's a really friendly site (much better thatn Imageshack imo). You just load up a bunch of images and it copies the [*IMG] link [*/IMG] as soon as you click on the link.
Thank you for your advice and I hope to be releasing (that sounds pro ^^) my guide soon. Only need to make 2 video's and I need a friend of me to help with that, so it depends on wether he's online or not.
