Right-click on the image, save it to your desktop, then upload it using an image hosting site like Postimage.

Right-click on the image, save it to your desktop, then upload it using an image hosting site like Postimage.

 

Or just 'copy image address' of the picture and post it using the green icon on the forum toolbar called 'image'.

 

Literally two clicks.

Hey, that works! I never knew it was a thing.

Never use postimage... It's unreliable. Use sites like Imgur.

But if for whatever reasons the wiki mods decide to take down the image or change it's address, or if the server goes down for a while, the image on your article will disappear. Always better to upload it to a place.

There may be others too; not sure. Just thought that this was kinda cool  :ph34r:.

I've written one of my upcoming stories in the style of a newspaper article. It is in American English, as that's where my strength lies. I'd kind of like it to be in Queen's English (or Received Pronunciation, if you prefer). My publication schedule is for June 16. Anyone have a resource?

What kind of a resource are you looking for? If you want something that can 'translate' your American English to British English, I would suggest you get a spell-check like Grammarly, and in the settings set the language to British English instead of American English... then fix the underlined words :).

Yep, something like that!

 

Turns out, aside from learning how to spell "armour," there weren't any differences.

When are my articles gonna be published?

You will be notified if your articles are not published, it will take a little while as the AWC helpers need to read through and proofread.

The thing I try to keep in mind is that the mods and helpers are all volunteers, with lives and happenings of their own. I've had articles that were published in just one day; I've had it take over a week. It's frustrating, there's no denying that, but at the end of the day, we're all just people doing the best we can!

Aww, I'm not a distinguished member?  :mellow: By the way, Gnat and Lolkiller should be added to the list of ex-members

There's no more AWC, so no distinguished members I suppose. Correct me if I'm wrong, reporters. you can have my distinguished status, i neither want it not deserved it

Consider me a new face, please. Speaking of which, I should silence myself before I say too much. Also, isn't it supposed to be "whose alt are you"? Edited July 1, 2018 by thethiefofvictory

Okay.. I'll figure it out eventually, everyone has a different writing style :l

 

you saw nothing

Yes, the AWC is no more. Consequently, it's now the AWS.

KillerGnat should, however I'm still just a candidate and not yet an actual reporter.

[thethiefofvictory 339]

Oh, wow, I've already written another story, and my first one isn't yet published. May I post the new one right now?

[LOLKILLERTOTHEDEATH 1,921]

Sure! Go ahead and post it. If you do, we'll have it ready for you in some time and it will probably take less time that way.

...and done. Turns out I'll write a third before this is published. Hah, joking, I shouldn't write this much.

[P.4.R.K.O.U.R 329]

Just read @GrandExecutioner's 'The Medic'. Both the story and the avatar just blew up my mind. Feel like hiding. Is there any Noob Writing Section? :ph34r:

[thethiefofvictory 339]

Will there still be Best of AWC topics, now that the AW Club is no more?
