Ok, so I use tinypic because Photobucket for me, has a limit before you have to pay for the dang thing >:( It also mixes up your photos.

Four more upload things are there! Yes... the advert up there was ruined by me, but it did say to give them a make over and I wanted to know if red suited Angelina Jolie better or Brittney Spears.... Anyway, click the browse button and choose your selected picture(s) Ignore any other buttons, just follow my voice....

After you have all of the wanted pictures click the [upload] button. If you're already in an album, you don't have to worry about where your pictures are going to. If not, just choose the album you want next to the upload button. It says [upload to- blahblahIpicmynosealbumblah...]

The longest upload could take upto one minute, in my computers state, it only takes ten seconds. You must wait for the green bar to fully fill up...then wait for five more seconds until your page changes into....

Now right click your picture and click on [Copy]

Now go back to LJ post and right click again. No you want the [paste] button.

Now you have your picture! Unfortunatly it's too big to fit your page on LJ and it will cause an LJ page break. Soooo....right click
your picture and click on [image properties] Now, this is where the scary and techqnical stuff happens...PSHHH for you but not for me! You're first timers so it will obviously be weirding you out at first, but then you'd get used to it...

Now this box will come up and all you need to do is wait until your box is full loaded with your picture on the right hand side of the box where all the 'Lorem Ipsum' words are. Don't ask me what it means. I think it's latin...? Anyway, if it 's still not loaded, cross your box out and try again. Soon enough a picture will apear. Now click on the [width] area and ONLY that area. Don't even try the hieght.

Now type in 700. Don't bother with the height I SAY! It'll automatically place itself there as 525. 700 is not too small and not too big that it will break the page.

Now type in some words at the bottom of your picture... then click preview to view your awsomeness!

Et voila! Magnifique! You have finished that picture! Ok... it takes upto 1 minute of doing just one picture but only if you're a pro like me :) If you're a beginner, you'll start to get used to it but still take five minutes (lol!) Sorry, I'm just a lonely cruel person >:) And this picture, is near the end of my chapter for 'A Never Ending Tale' so keep yo eyes peeled for it! It will be out after this tutorial! And if you still don't understand, ask some questions in the comments section. I'll answer them ASAP :D If you still don't comprende, you can go suck on your cookie and go to a prissy little 'photobucket' tutorial. Because Tinypic....Tinypic is where it's game's at! WE ARE THE GANGSTA'S AT TP! So watch yo back PhotoBucketer's.... soon, the world will be turning to TP.... AND WE WILL RULE! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Ok, I had enough now, bye and have a nice day :)
