Trying to figure this out. Never used a hosting site for photos before.
"You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community." Well, that's not right...
Edited by FSDFSD's stuff and things
You need to upload your image to a hosting site (most people use Imgur, but Photobucket, public facing Facebook albums or any other host site you can get the weblink to will work) and then paste the BBForum code like the image below:

Workable file extensions are .JPG, .GIF and .PNG (there may be others, but those are the most common).
If you click the "More Reply Options" button at the bottom of your post, you can then hit the "preview post". If your image is in the preview, you did it right!

Looks like you have it figured out!
Going to need to work on my photo skills...
Looks like you have it figured out!
Yes, thanks. There were numerous links to copy and use and I chose poorly the first time out.
Remember to enable macro mode on your camera where the subject is less than 6" away. The macro-mode icon is a small flower.
Somehow, over the course of 5 days, I managed to purchase the Stormtrooper villain pack, bring it home, open it, and prime all three figures only to somehow lose on of them. Now I have been fuming for the past month over the fact that I'm stuck with two models that I cannot do anything with... or am I??
In all, I was pretty happy with the conversion. Part of me wishes I had cleaned up the chest plate a little better as there is a small piece of flash still there from cutting off the helmet but I was able to get it cut off in perfect condition so any Ewoks that may end up getting produced can get a custom drum set. Plus I'm really only painting my figures to tabletop quality. I'm not too concerned with hyper-realistic shading and inking.
Now I need to pick up a Han ally pack and try to track down an AA Luke card.
One more for the day: K-3PO and the Junk Droid. I may actually do a wash on the Junk droid. He almost looks too clean...
You may want to forget the junk droid figure. They function like tokens and having a figure there will cause confusion.
While we wait for rulings on Ugnaughts and Companions...
Also, size reference for Junk Droid proxies (I still feel the WOTC Astromechs are too small).
I honestly feel the r2 mini is too big
Decided to try out a little more mod work. Wanted something fun ready for when we hopefully get Rebel Commandos in an Endor themed release.
Nik Sant aka Gramps (rumored to be Captain Rex):

I like your storm trooper conversion - very cool :-)
I really like Captain Rex! Good work all around.
