I wanted to design a couple cards for this smallish thread I'm planning on making, but I shortly found out that I have no idea how to use Hearthcards and forums in general. I started out by going to hearthcards and making the cards in question, eventually copying the BBcodes that they offered at the end. I made my thread and pasted the BBcodes where I wanted them, but on previewing the thread they didn't seem to work. Hearthcards also said that they're storing the cards for only 3 days unless I find a permanent image hoster. I frankly don't want to get an imgur account seeing as this is literally a one time thing.
Please help me. I'm completely in over my head with this.
You really have no choice in the matter - you HAVE to create an imgur account, even if it's just a 'one-time thing.' Besides, making cards is never a one-night stand - once you start doing it, you'll get HOOKED to it. So JUST DO IT!
With all seriousness though, what I usually do is create a card in Hearthcards, then save it onto a file. Afterwards, I upload it into imgur (you'll need an account for this :P). Then, I copy the direct link of the 'image' (the card) by either right-clicking on the image and clicking on 'Copy image adress' or copying the direct link directly (which should be displayed in imgur). Finally, I use said link from imgur in Hearthpwn at 'Insert/edit image', and voilah, your card is posted in the forums. Of course, some of the aforementioned steps will have to be done differently if you're using a different browser (I'm using Chrome) or when you're using mobile (which I've never tried yet).
Thank you so much. This explanation seems really comprehensive and I literally had no idea before. Bummer that I have to get an account though. The reason I didn't want to have to make an account was mainly because I was afraid of getting hooked onto something else XD
Imgur accounts are free and very helpful (not to mention easy to set up). I made an Imgur account just because I had a couple card ideas, and started adding them into a folder. Now I have 164 images (3 full pages, 107 unique cards), and it's easy to keep adding more.
Also, if you're enjoying card design, there's some Card Design Competitions that I'd recommend joining... And you'll need an Imgur account for that, too.
Today in my free brawl pack I got Barongeddon, then I had a cup of fresh green tea. As a result of that, I think Priest is OP because my keyboard is not a mechanical one. I hope Blizzard will address this issue.
You actually dont need to share it with the whole world, just copy the image and then paste it, I made it in my card forge and for my submissions, wich never suceed.
OK I just tested this out. I made a card on hearthcards and then went to the "new post" button on imgur without making an account like Chimera said. I successfully uploaded the image onto imgur, but when I used the insert/edit image function on hearthpwn I found that only the image icon showed up when I clicked preview, instead of the actual image. What went wrong?
Normally you are gonna need to re copy it 2 times, sometimes fails, but it prizes. Well, I mean that you right click and copy it two times, then you click on the image manager for size, it gives the link instantly even if it doesnt exists the image, so you are gonna have np making that, if you understood of course

You don't need an account for imgur, i've never made one and i have uploaded many images.
