How do I upload images?

There are two ways to upload images:

1) For the casual user, simply select the image using the browse button, then click submit. Your image will be automatically uploaded, and you will be taken to a page with information about your uploaded image. From this page you can either copy and paste the b3ta code into the new message page on b3ta.com, or if you want to create a new thread (or are particularly lazy) you can click the submit to b3ta button, and it will fill in the fields in the new message page of B3ta for you (NOTE: you must have the auto-login feature of B3ta.com enabled for this to work). Images submitted by casual users are deleted after 3 days - this is a necessary step to avoid filling up the server with images that aren't even being viewed.

2) For the more serious user, login and select the image you wish to upload (and if you want to, a smaller image) then click submit. As with the causal users, you will be shown a page with the necessary details (see option 1 above) for posting on B3ta. Those who log in before posting will have the ability to view all their stored images and are also not subjected to the 3 day limit. Logged in user images are stored permanently, however each user is limited to 20 images. If you have 20 images and upload another, your oldest image will be removed. You may choose to delete unwanted images at any time by following the "show my images" link and clicking the delete link under any images you no longer wish to keep online.

Notes for uploading:

You can enter titles and alternate text for images if you want (it's optional). These titles are displayed on the show image pages. If you leave them blank, Warren B3ta's Anus will automatically fill them in.

Logged in users also have the option of uploading a smaller version (or thumbnail if you prefer). This is useful for FP whores who would like to have a 280 pixel wide image to get the FP but want a link to a bigger version for clarity. The "click for big" link is automatically generated in the B3ta copy/paste code when you upload a small version.

What if I get a Front Page on B3ta.com?
Causal users are screwed. Any user that logs in to store their images has the "I got a front page!!!eleventy!!" link displayed - click this link and Warren B3ta's Anus will scan the B3ta.com front page. If it finds any of your submitted images there, it will move those images into permanent storage (they will never be deleted, even if you upload 20 images)
How do I post my image on B3ta.com?

Once you upload an image, you are shown a page with info about the image. There is a box that has the necessary HTML code for you to copy and paste into B3ta.com's new message page. Or if you want to create a new thread (or are particularly lazy) you can click the submit to b3ta button, and it will fill in the fields in the new message page of B3ta for you (NOTE: you must have the auto-login feature of B3ta.com enabled for this to work).

Note: If you uploaded an image and want to post it again on B3ta, you can get to the info page by following the "show my images" link and then clicking ont he "show info" link underneath the picture you want to repost.

Is that it? Where's the rest of the info?
