How to post a new thread Let's say I would like to post a new thread in the general-section.
And then..
Now I just click the "Post Message" - botton. Thread is now posted.
4.
How to post a picture It is quite simple to post a picture in a post.
a) You can attach photos to your post by clicking on the paperclip.
b)
Instead I recommend you to upload pics to a site like
www.imageshack.us. I recommend uploading to size 800x600.
After uploading click on the "tree" and insert the Image URL to your pic. (right click on picture to copy direct link).
Now you can post as many pics as you want.
5.
How to quote a message First click "green" and then "red".
6.
How to post a youtube-video Copy the URL to your Youtube-vid.
Then click here.
Click insert tag.
This is now copied into your post "[tube][/tube]"
Now put you youtubevid-URL in between the [tube]insert Youtube URL here[/tube]
Now just click "unlink" and then "Post Message"
It should look like this.
7.
How to post a link Lets say I would like to post a link to one of my profile.
Then I find the URL to my profile.
http://www.evga.com/forum...file.aspx?memid=852128 Now I would like to replace that long link with "link to my profile".
I copy the whole link and then type "link to my profile. Now I mark the "link to my profile" and then click on the "link"-button.
And this pops up. Now paste the link to the profile or whatever you would like to link to.
The result:
Link to my profile 8.
How to setup up your modsrigs a)
Create a profile b)
Create a build c) Upload pics (max 500kb each and file-type: Jpeg)
d) type your specs
e) Upload your 3DmarkVantage/3Dmark11-score to be able to win. I've shown an examble below.. This is with my score, P47792 vantage
e,a) 1. Insert your score.. (only digits) so for instance you have to write "47792" in the field right to the line marked with red.
2. Insert your link, "
http://3dmark.com/3dmv/2562847", into the field right to the line marked with green.
3. Make sure your rig is public, check the field within the blue circle.
4. If you want your rig to be your primary rig, which means that your modsrigslink beneath your avatar directs to this rig, then you check the field within the yellow circle..
