   Sure, you do not have to tell me how to post a general item description, however, I have an item I would like to post, but it is near to impossible to describe, without the aid of some visaulization...
   
   I did already create a picture that I would like to add to the item description, but I have no idea how to attach that to an Item....
   
   Is this possible?
   
   If so how?
   
   Or do I just need to post the idea to the "Flesh it out" thread?
   
   Yours gratefully,

   There is no way to attach a picture in the main Citadel, although that eventually may become something that happens.
   
   For now you can either post it in flesh it out as you mentioned or you can post the picture in the album.
   
   Either way you can copy and paste the link into your submission, although it will not be clickable (at least it shouldn't be) the person can copy and paste that link into their browser and get to it that way. Or you can just post as seen in the Flesh it out forums under "topic" or whaterver, or point them to the album.
   
   Sorry it is inconvenient but it is a big job to allow picture uploading and way down on the list. I haven't had much time for the site in the past couple weeks as it is, but I would love to add this functionality eventually!
   
   Thanks for your patience.

   Thank you for your reply.
   
   It is not that I realy miss this functionality most of the time, but I did have the feeling I was just blundering about and overlooking some incredibly big button that said: "Click here to upload the picture you need"......
   
   I do think the album idea is a good one, gives me a solid reason to try and upload a picture into my album to say the least.
   
   Yours, Ylorea

   Oke, so now I uploaded the picture into my gallery, but.... I ran into the next problem...
   
   Now I have a feature request that would (I hope) be fairly easy to implement: a preview button for items you have just defined, so you can check the item one last time before realy adding it to the citadel's treasure trove.
   
   Probably the same could be usefull for NPC's, settings etcetera....
   
   Yours gratefully,

   p.s. I know I have to be patient and so, given time, summer, rain and the like, I will upload the item I intended to create last monday....

   I understand your point about the preview. It may be more convenient to take a quick look at the outcome while you are still in the editing phase.
   
   You are right, it shouldn't be that hard to implement.
   
   I will add it to my todo list when I have fixed some of the more critical updates.
   
   Thanks for bringing it up!!
