Oh snap!

How to upload a screenshot or picture to Imgur and use it in Pocket Gamer's comments section
|

Want to use a picture in our comments section?

We'd love to see anything you have to show us (well, within reason), but if you're new to the world of sharing images, you'll need a guide on how to do exactly that.

Lucky for you, that's exactly what this is.

Enjoy!

Go ahead and type Imgur.com into your search bar and strike Return. Or click here. Whatevs.

Click 'Computer', pick your pic from the folder the image is contained, and hit 'upload'.

Once it's uploaded, copy the URL from the bit that says "Direct Link". You can then paste this into the comments section of any article on PG and click 'send'.

You might receive a message saying that the comment is pending moderation, and our team will quickly ensure it doesn't contain any naughtiness (like the word "poppycock").

Voila. You're done. That was easy wasn't it? Now go post on PG using your newly found powers.
