Here is a short video example on how to upload files to the site. You will need image hosting for your file submissions you can upload your images at http://cncmaps.com/uploader and the bb code to paste into your map submission will be generated for you. Free hosting such as imageshack photobucket flicker ect... are not allowed because they are slow and have restrictions. In the field that says Mini-Map screenshot you will need to use the bbcode that says Minimap next to the bbcode on the left side of the bbcode. Full Screen Video Tutorial Hosting your image at http://cncmaps.com/uploader is the required image host, due to free hosting is not worth a bucket of spit. If the image is hosted at CnCMaps Gallery we will always know that the image will be available and have bandwith unlike free hosts. QUOTE Map Submission Example: Insert Map Description Here Insert BBCode (Forums): for large images code here Insert BBCode (Forums): for large images code here Resources: CnCMaps Image uploader - "you must use our image hosting" Screenshot program - "to take the mini map preview image" must include start postions on the mini-map ! Online photo editer - "no installs required for use" How to upload Command and Conquer maps.flv Map posting rules updated: 5-30-09 rule 1. mini-map image screenshot must contain the player start postitions. rule 2. Image hosting other than the cncmaps.com/uploader is not allowed due to free hosting is really slow and increases load page load time, and various time limits and bandwith restrictions free hosts place on free image hosting. breaking any or all of these rules means that staff will pm you with corrections we would like you to make in your map and/or file submission post, or i might just fix it myself.

Tip: 1. In CnC3, Kane's Wrath and Red Alert 3 before you take a screenshot hit the End button on your keyboard, this will remove the Interface from the screen and you can take a nice screenshot.  In generals and zerohour it would be the F9 button.2. Recording and then replaying a replay is a excellent way to take screenshots without the fog of war ect.... |

Note: we are no longer useing the image uploader shown in the video tutorial we are useing a updated version of the one shown in the video. It functions much the same though. Also you no longer should resize your images except your mini map image, make that under 200 pixels wide or so... This post has been edited by thomasalan: Apr 10 2010, 03:07 PM |
