Posting images in forums? (Imgur)
I don't think Steam allows game forum posts with images embeded in the actual post itself, nor accepts links embeded for images from Imgur. As when I try with a Link from Imgur, it says "Link may be malicious" or something like that with a warning pop-up.

I want the image embeded in the actual post though, and read it's possible to save screenshots taken from the computer itself rather than from steam...then uploading the image into User Artwork, as it's treated the same as Screenshots within Steam. Then can post the image into the post as embeded. Please let me know if this is correct, and where the Artwork Upload section is at.

It will always do that.

Upload artwork and embed that instead. Assuming you created the artwork.

Limited accounts can't post public artwork though.

Awesome, but where is the option to upload artwork?

It doesn't have to be public shared artwork, is it possible to upload it to my User account somewhere?

I was mistaken. You are not limited.

@999999999...So how after I upload the images to Artwork, will I embed it to a Forum post? Is there a specific process to it that's not that simple?

Is it possible to get rid of the "Community Created Artwork for Steam Artwork" part? It's kinda obvious since it's the only way to post it.

Sadly, no. That is a part of it.

My final 2 questions that can help me to be all set with using steam are, how do I quote anothers comment by selecting portions to quote? Also if I want to use Imgur for embeded image posting in Steam Forums is that not possible to do, and do I "have to" do it through the User Artwork with steam (considering the images are not screenshots from within Steam...)?
