i've been getting quite a number of inquiries from fellow hofo members on how to post wallpapers with preview.

so here are the steps:

first resize your images accordingly:
=========================
* set resolution to screen display (72 dpi or 96 dpi)
* set height to 320 pixels for inner display
* set height to 96 pixels for outer display
* set width to 240 pixels inner display
* set width to 64 pixels for outer display)
* save your image in jpeg format (recommended)

join any free image-hosting website:
=========================
for example:
* www.villagephotos.com
* www.photobucket.com
there are many such sites out there, and you can find them by doing a Google search for "free image-hosting", for example.
* upload your images to that website
* copy the hyperlink to your image, for example:
"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v366/longj49/007_big.jpg"

posting the wallpapers in hofo:
=====================
* click on "post reply" on the wallpaper thread.
* in the editing box, click on the "IMG" button located on the toolbars above.
* put the hyperlink. this will appear, for example, as:
"[IMG]"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v366/longj49/007_big.jpg"[/IMG]"
(without the quotes!)

hope this helps.
