Needs attention New method of uploading images to the forum

Hello Galactic Survivalists,

We found a workable solution for uploading images on our forum
From now on you dont use the "Upload a File" button for this anymore



But you use the new "Remote Upload Images"



You add your prictures there with "Add Images" after you done this you press the "Upload" button
It will upload your pictures to our storage account, then you can press "Insert" to add the picture to your post.

Since this will only work for images (jpg|jpeg|png|gif). You can use the "Upload a File" for Log files and blueprint files.

SaveGames can be done if they are still small. Otherwise you have to use GoogleDrive (or something similar) for it

We think this is a good solution for everyone, as no-one has to create an account on a 3rd party site anymore

Hello Galactic Survivalists!

Since imgur disabled there API our remote upload image function no longer works
But we have a 2 solutions that will work

Option 1:
Imgur public or personal account

• Upload image to imgur,
• Click on the 3 dots in the top right,
• Click on get share links,
• Select "Copy Link" on "BBCode (Forum)",
• Paste link in to post,

Optional: create an imgur account so you have ownership of anything uploaded to imgur on your account

Option 2:
Steam Artwork

Open the steam client or website and go to your profile


On your profile right side select Artwork


A new page will open where you can upload images. Press the Upload artwork button


After you get a screen where either you upload without attaching a game or you can select Empyrion as game


When you select "not game specific" or select Empyrion a new screen will open where you upload the screenshot


Fill this in how you like, press the "I certify that i created this artwork" and either save it to your own profile or to the Empyrion Community Hub on Steam.

After this a new window will open with your uploaded artwork
Right click on the image and press "Copy link address"


This will copy the URL needed to post the artwork on the forum


After your screenshot is added to the post you are writing!
