๐[BBCODE] How to add images to your posts, add links to images, post Youtube videos, and other popular tricks
Many people have trouble with these popular post tricks but with this guide you can do them easily! Find what you want to know how to do below, and click the button to show how it's done with examples and codes you can copy. Use the BBcode in your posts, signature, and About Me for your profile. All these tricks are simply copying a BBcode opening tag, then entering the text you want customized or changed into a pic/video, and then adding a closing BBcode tag at the end. I have a video example of using BBcode here now to make it clear: https://youtu.be/u6Mwy4wMRUk?t=260 I add BBcode to my signature here: https://youtu.be/QVWlR_cqdGM?t=689 To change your signature, post text and BBcodes from this topic to the Signature box and save: https://myanimelist.net/editprofile.php?go=forumoptions To change your About Me, post text and BBcodes from this topic to the About Me box here and save: https://myanimelist.net/editprofile.php Posting Images First, you need to download the image you want to display then upload it to a site like Imgur (http://imgur.com/) or any other photo-hosting site. After uploading, it will give you the BBcode link (among other links). This is what you need to paste into your post to have the image show. You can always tell what the Bbcode link is because it starts with [img]. For example, click here and see the BBcode link circled in red after uploading to Imgur: http://i.imgur.com/HHGgyTu.png This is how it looks when you write an image code: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/XPRqJ60.gif[/IMG] This is how it looks when posted: Posting Youtube Videos Go to the address bar on the Youtube video's page and copy everything after v= and stopping at & if that comes up. Don't include the & or anything after it. See here for an example if you need it: Put that info in between [yt] and [/yt] tags. This is how it looks when you write a Youtube code: [yt]4Nb5Ohbt1Sg[/yt] This is how it looks when posted: Boxes around text Use an opening and closing quote tags before and after around the text you want boxed in. Before posting, it looks like this: [quote]example text[/quote] After posting, it looks like this: example text Posting Images and Text alongside each other (side by side) See the above spoiler if you don't know how to post your images on MAL. When you know how to use the image tag, you can use this form of the image tag to post text alongside the image! Replace the image link with your own image and your text with your own. Make sure the text you want alongside the image always follows the image tag. This is how it looks when you write an image align left code (image on left side of text) [img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/LGdS7MM.png[/img] Put text here. This is how it looks after you post an image align left code (image on left side of text) This is how it looks when you write an image align right code (image on right side of text) [img align=right]http://i.imgur.com/LGdS7MM.png[/img] Put text here. This is how it looks when you post an image align right code (image on right side of text) Adding Links to Text In front of the text you want to have a link on, add [url=] before it. Where you want the text to stop linking, add [/url] after. Now, after the equal sign, paste in the link you want. After you complete your post, the text should turn dark blue since it links now. This is how it looks when you write a link into text, before posting: [url=http://myanimelist.net/animelist/Shishio-kun]This is my text linking to my list.[/url] This is how it looks when posted (notice it can clicked): This is my text linking to my list. Adding Links to Images This is how you have your images link to what you want. You just click on the image and it works like a regular text link! Before the image code, you need to put [url=] before it. Then after you put [/url]. After the equal sign you'l put the link you're linking to. This is how it looks when you write a link into an image, before posting: [url=http://myanimelist.net/animelist/Shishio-kun][IMG]https://i.imgur.com/fJsspdR.jpg[/IMG][/url] This is how it looks when posted (notice it can be clicked): Put stuff into Spoilers This is very easy, just put the spoiler tag [spoiler] in front of what you want to conceal. When you want the concealment to end, put [/spoiler] after it. This is how it looks when you want to conceal some text with spoiler, before posting: His secret identity is [spoiler]a secret[/spoiler] This is how it looks when posted: His secret identity is a secret. Naming Spoilers When you post your spoiler tag around what you want to conceal, add ="your text here" after the word spoiler in the first spoiler tag. Your text here can be changed to your own text. See below for an example. Your custom text will follow Show on the spoiler button. This is how it looks before posting: Her secret identity is [spoiler="her secret identity"]a secret[/spoiler] This is how it looks when posted: Her secret identity is a secret. Customizing Text with color, size, cursive, etc Just put the text you want to change in between the tags which are in red, and you will get what you see in the example! Bold text: [b][/b] example: I love Hatsune Miku! Color Text: [color=red][/color] example: I love Hatsune Miku! Put a color name or number for your color after the equal sign like red, blue, green, etc. Get more color numbers here: https://htmlcolorcodes.com/ Italics: [i][/i] example: I love Hatsune Miku! Underline: [u][/u] example:I love Hatsune MIku! Strike-through: [s][/s] example:I love Hatsune Miku! Code: [code][/code] example: I love Hatsune Miku! Resizing text: [size=][/size] example: I love Hatsune Miku! note: after the equal sign enter the number of the size you want your text. For example, 150 for larger text as in the example. Not 150px or 150%. Centering text: [center][/center] example: I love Hatsune Miku! Moving text to the right: [right][/right] example: I love Hatsune Miku!

I have two good examples you can view and copy below. So here is a red colored, underlined, large, text with a link. Notice the opening tags start first, then the text to customize, then the closing tags are posted in opposite order of how the opening tags. I chose to put the underline tag first here, so then the underline tag goes last. Red Underlined Large Club Link Code for this: [u][size=150][url=https://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=19736][color=red]Red Underlined Large Club Link[/color][/url][/size][/u] You can also paste opening tags, text, start new opening tags, more text, then close your new tags, the close your first tags. A really big example of combing BBcode First text Second Text Third Text Code for this: [b][color=red]A really big example of combing BBcode[/color][/b] [spoiler="big example"] [b]First text[/b] [spoiler] [u][color=red]Second Text[/color][/u] [img]https://i.imgur.com/ycrUU5g.gif[/img] [/spoiler] Third Text [/spoiler] Profile/Signature BBcode Tricks People often ask how to make BBcode like this. Just click the spoiler button under each signature to see the BBcode for it, and you can see how its done and replace the images with your own. Two pics with text in the middle text text text text text text text text text [center][img align=left]https://i.imgur.com/1Rgehqn.png[/img] [img align=right]https://i.imgur.com/SpKTqEn.png[/img] text text text text text text text text text[/center] Signature with boxes behind PNGs Text 1 here Text 2 here Text 3 here Make sure you use small PNGs with transparent backgrounds (renders) for best results. You could always download character renders, chibis, etc, and resize them on a site like Imgur. Notice one image link is aligned left and the second one on the right. There are also three quote boxes, you can do any number you wish however. [img align=left]https://i.imgur.com/5UkFjto.png[/img][img align=right]https://i.imgur.com/YR413cD.png[/img][quote]Text 1 here[/quote][quote]Text 2 here[/quote][quote]Text 3 here[/quote] Signature with boxes behind PNGs Text 1 here Text 2 here Text 3 here Centered text. [center][img align=left]https://i.imgur.com/5UkFjto.png[/img][img align=right]https://i.imgur.com/YR413cD.png[/img][quote]Text 1 here[/quote][quote]Text 2 here[/quote][quote]Text 3 here[/quote][/center] Set BBcode for others to copy with the code tag With the code tags, any BBcodes in between them won't activate as they normally would, and instead display in a quote like box for easy copying like this below. You can also quote a thread post to see the BBcode. Example: [yt]tnA_-dWKUdc[/yt] Put the BBcode into the literal code tags [code] [/code]. The code example of BBcode would be: [code][yt]tnA_-dWKUdc[/yt][/code] [code][/code] More BBcode guides and tricks Full list of BBcode topics: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=419453 Full BBcode tutorial: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=398185 Rainbow text trick http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1190329 ๐๐พ๐ป๐ผ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐๐ฝ, ๐พ๐ท๐ฒ๐บ๐พ๐ฎ ๐ฏ๐ธ๐ท๐ฝ๐ผ, ๐ช๐ท๐ญ ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ซ๐ธ๐ต๐ผ ๐ฏ๐ธ๐ป ๐๐๐ฌ๐ธ๐ญ๐ฎ ๐น๐ธ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ผ https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1878318 Putting image and text alongside each other http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1443383 Quick BBcode Reference Guide http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=398237 Making profile and signature graphics Full Signature Overview and adding automatic updates If you need help, head to 4:25 in this video to see all BBcode displayed!

zat-bust said: for MAL entries you can simply end the link after the number in this case it would be http://myanimelist.net/anime/6547How do I make it so that the pictures are presented in one row instead of on top of each other going from top to bottom? Also websites that end in punctation do not work such as ![]() |
zat-bust said: How do I make it so that the pictures are presented in one row instead of on top of each other going from top to bottom? You just put all the IMG tags for all the pics side by side with no space between them and without hitting enter key in between them. Also, the combined width of the pics you want on one row must not exceed the width of the place you want to put them on, for example, club information max width is 629px I think. If your pics end up going over that amount then the pics spill over to a lower part since there's no more room. ![]() |
Hi need some help. How do i put color on my text because i type the code and replace the '' color '' for red example when i see my profile it just shows the code and the text i put in between the codes help pls ![]() |
Don't replace the words color with the color, put the color name or number after the equal sign. Example: [color=red][/color] ![]() |

Guilty said: For example I want this: http://imgur.com/2Tj1GfB on top of this:http://imgur.com/mrqsFhW ok np, its a very popular little trick but it can't be done with BBcode; it needs to be done with graphics programs. But they're free! As you know, you will need a character render (one with a cut out background) like the Miku one you linked us, and a background for it. It can either be done with GIMP, I show how to do it at the time 2:40 of this video: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=544347 or it can be done with Photoshop as I show in the step 3 here (not a video): http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1392420#msg40753590 btw downloads for a free Photoshop copy are in post 1 of that topic ![]() |
There is a border which surrounds the text inside the code tags. i.e kjnaskjxnAKJXN laksmclmasc I've seen that many people have the same border around their text, but the text isn't in the raw text form, instead as normal text. I was wondering if you knew how to just get the border to surround text. ![]() |
I been trying for hours okay link me to a youtube video that shows how to do this. ![]() "Would you shut up! I'm in the middle of finding my purpose!" -Fei Fong Wong |
shdwpny said: I been trying for hours okay link me to a youtube video that shows how to do this. Just copy this practice code (from the topic) into your profile About Me. The top. Save. [spoiler="her secret identity"]a secret[/spoiler] The text that shows up on the spoiler goes between the quotations. In the practice code, that would be her secret identity. The text a secret will show up when you click on the spoiler. ![]() |

charochan said: it show the link to the picture not the picture in general I'm gonna assume you're referring to the broken image in your About Me? You seem to be using a bad image link. Upload the image to Imgur or the other sites recommended in the OP, and put the "direct link" it makes in between the IMG tags ![]() |

I see, I see. Well, yeah the person who made that code (including images) is an expert (?) or well likes coding. On another topic, there have been another cleverly codes. Random suggestion, but how about adding these cleverly codes at the top post? Dunno what title should type, maybe other famous tricks? Anyway, thank you again for the help! m / In reply to this person, regarding Youtube video auto play... Well, I ever made it worked before. Youtube Playlist autoplay., but sadly I forgot.... ;w; After tried dug old ones I found these codes... and ofc how I found the methods was through Google but then again forgot what keyword did I type at the time [yt]9E3lFDbM7Oo?list=PLTbCmKLKdX8xNxAk_uZZ8aaD_mby3kIHl&loop=0[/yt] Video source It didn't worked anymore though. Either the codes were wrong or playlist has been deleted already. And so, I tried with new ones... [yt]sVbYtoFWC40?list=PLwrD0bZcC6tgJwxS6o8m3yzKG8dPCBamr&loop=0[/yt] Still didn't worked even though I've used the same codes and there is a playlist there. Here's the playlist. So yeah I don't know anymore. I'd appreciate it as well if there is anyone who knows about it. It is either wrong codes or probably you can't do it anymore for whatever reasons now? Like it has been disabled already? And according to my old notes, it did ever worked on Aug 2017, that is if it was correct though... ![]() Modified by Mitsuki-, May 6, 2018 6:35 PM |
