Can you be a bit more specific?

If you have an image in your comic and you want to put it on your comic somewhere:

Code: Select all

<image src="/images/name.jpg">

If you have an image in your comic and you want to share it here in the forums:

Code: Select all

[img]http://nameofcomic.comicgenesis.com/images/name.jpg[/img]

If you have an image in your comic and you want to share it on another site: you can't - the anti-hotlinking feature kicks in. If you have images that you want to share on other sites (such as banners or fan art) then you'll need to upload it onto another host. Photobucket is good, or you can go with DivShare or RipWay. Both of those are good because you can share other file types (such as rar, zip, bmp, swf, exe, txt, etc). All three are also free (just need to register).

Uh ... what?

If you mean that you have two comics, A and B and want to have a link to B from A then that's easy.

1. Make a banner / image to advertise B.
2. Upload it to A, in the images folder.
3. In A, use a standard html link and put it where you want it to show up*.
4. Repeat as needed. Just remember that the banner / image needs to be on the account that is doing the advertising, not on the comic being advertised (so if you want to advertise B and C in the comic A, you'd have both images on A.

* A standard link would be:

Code: Select all

<a href=" url to B "><img src="/images/name.jpg"></a>
