   External Photo Linking

   • Nuschel01
   • May 2, 2022

   Copy the direct link of your image (ends on .jpg or .[image file ending]) and embed them as shown.
2. How it should look:

   [url={your_image.jpg}][img width="640px"]{your_image.jpg}[/img][/url]

3. For copying:
   

   [url=][img width="640px"][/img][/url]

4. Follow the steps explained in the other instructions how to use the spoiler tag.

Thanks a lot, really helpful

I usually just copy and paste from the GT7 My Page. 😅 But probably not the best quality.

It's perhaps not clear from the OP, but this relates mostly to the Livery Editor Competitions where using your method does not comply with the rules so it would likely get an entry DSQ'd.

Nuschel01 can you check your links posted in the "how to post" options. I think there is a step missing because when I click "Add Media after following your "media section of the forum " link below in screenshot, you then have to choose some sort of album rather than seeing the screenshot you have in your guide...

 

[Nuschel01]

[...]

Just click "create personal album" and then upload your photos. The screenshots only show what to do to post everything as a reply here.

A small Question, can you add Gran Turismo Sport liveries which you adjust to GT7 specs?

A small Question, can you add Gran Turismo Sport liveries which you adjust to GT7 specs?

Do you mean can you import Sport liveries to GT7? Because yes you can. I’ve had to adjust all the ones that I’ve brought over but it works fine.

If you mean can you enter them in the LEC the only restriction is that you haven’t entered them in a previous LEC.
