How do I do that...
This is a question asked by members and Mods a like that might not know how to do something specific on the site. For example you might not know how to embed a web link into text in your forum post, or as a mod you might not know how to stick a post.
Well I will try to do my best and either post videos or screen shots on how to do things on the site. If you have something you would like to be shown how to do, post up and I will try to show you how. Worst case I will ask the Admins and try to get an answer for you.

Posting and image on the forums. Might be slightly NSFW, it has a girl in a normal bikini in the video.

How about the chat properties for site chat when setting up a different IRC client?
I used to know all that stuff but have forgot.gif "124")
Well, this has been discused but has not been authorized by the Higher Powers of the site. But if I do get the go ahead I shall do my best.

click on the photo you want to share here.
once the full size image appears, right click on it and select "copy image url"
come back here. click on the little picture icon in the tool bar of the comment box.
right click in the first box of the pop up and paste the url.
TADA!
Okay, what I failed to say clearly is that I have an image with no URL. It's not on the web anywhere, except facebook — and it seems I can't get a good URL. It's on my desktop, where I saved it after creating it especially to share here on 2o2p. That being the case... now what?
EDIT: Well, turns out I just had to right click a bit differently... "copy image URL" is not an option, but "properties" is, and the pop-up gives a bunch of info, including URL. I copied and pasted from there, and...
Voila! New banner sig for me.
See, I told y'all I was a noob.
i guess i should have asked what browser you are using.
at least i pointed you in the right direction.
Google and Yahoo offer photo storage features, you can then link image files from there. Or with a free service like photobucket.com or similar websites.
Hi all
Just wondering how you join a group/groups. I have applied to two and so far nothing has come back saying if my applications been successful or not ? But if i click my groups it shows me the ones ive applied for and if i press on that group it then takes me back to the page that says ( No public posts in this group. Consider joining this group in order to view its posts. )
Click the groups tab up at the top of the page. It will take you to a directory of groups. From there click the group you're looking for 7 it will take you to that groups homepage (not to be confused with their forum). there should be an option there to request permisson to join the group. If you've already requested to join some groups 7 haven't been accepted, then the group mods are probably slacking on their duties. shooot them a pm & ask them to approve you.
Why does Jcotter keep putting 7's in his posts?
My shift key seems to be crapping out.
Tis ok.
Noticed it a bit latley. Thought it was some kind of secret code to someone!
Can someone explain to me why I can't upload a new photo to my profile? I've obviously done it once. The pic is within the size parameters. I don't get it..gif "129")
Nevermind, i just realized that it changed. I didn't see it in my settings page. Oops.gif "1")
How do I join the 2O2P Steam Group? It says it's invite only, and I can't seem to message any online administrators.
Just sent you an invite. Welcome!
I got all excited until I realized I didn't get anything.
Whoops. Looks like my account is mrtotallyawesome, but my profile is ToiletFeast. I'll change that, if you could resend, I'd appreciate it.
Hey I want in aswell!
Found alot of the videos useful, just wanted to let you know. Good work
I'll try to get those invites out today. Im at work atm
How do i put a picture as my signature?
I just joined up with you all, and I created a group called 2Old4Quests (a console-MMO group) and was given admin privledges, so I'm gonna sound like a moron here, but...
I DON"T KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW!.gif "53")
It tells me that I'm not allowed to post anything on the forums for that group. I also don't see anything anywhere that steers me in the right direction. I tried logging out and then coming back in from the email I was sent upon getting admin'd, but that didn't do anything.
Can someone help? Thanks in advance!
Cheers!
So where the heck is the admin panel so I can manage the 2old4forza forums? And how do I keep this damn popup from coming up each page when I keep hitting the "I'm Good" button for adding games to my profile?
Don't know of the former but adding one game to your profile stops the pop-up....now to add a couple XOne games to mine.
