Ok, so I've uploaded a picture (it's a Savannah with some trees and Dark Clouds) and I'm wondering how I get it onto my storygame. I've checked the help so far, and it hasn't gotten me far...

That would require some HTML. From what I can find, you have this in where you want it. <img src = XXX width = XXXpx height = XXXpx> Where the src is the URL of the image, and the width and height in pixels.

What i have here is: <img src = http://chooseyourstory.com/i/?55969 width = 100px height = 100px>
You might want to consider wrapping the image in <br>(line breaks)

You don't need the width and height unless you need to change those for some reason, it's a lot easier to just upload an image that's the size you want to use.

so it's like copy and pasting the image URL and then changing it some??

Yeah, you are just telling the browser to display an image that's been stored at a certain address. (img src just means image source)

Make sure you get the actual image, which will end in .jpg or mpng or something, not just the link to the imgur page it's on.

Or just check out the link Peng put there I guess.

Yep, paste the url as source.

Here is some background: link

I wouldn't recommend actually uploading things to the site, the size restrictions are pretty ridiculous. It's really only meant for forum avatars and inventory icons.

But you can put it on imgur, then use

[img src="imageurl.jpg"]

(With < and > instead of the square brackets.)

Just look up how to do an image with html if you're still having trouble.
