Also, take a look at the FAQ thread. There are links to stories there, so you can get a feeling for the format.
Some people also link the pictures in their stories; linking works by the following code (url=Address.of.image)This is text(/url). Replace the round brackets () by straight brackets [].
Example:
The image address is
link will be (url=http://www.enworld.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=13877)Paul entered the woods(/url)
Result:
Paul walked into the woods
Some people link to images with text, others include an asterisk behind its appearance (Paul walked into the woods *), still others only use footnotes and explain what pic they used at the ennd of the story; some do more than one.
Try to include a double line break between columns (like I did in this post). It enhances readability. And DON'T EDIT YOUR POST. That will automatically disqualify you. If an image link doesn't work, it looks bad, but it would be worse to correct it affter posting.
Two hints for posting correctly:
You can use the preview option in your post.
Look for an old post of yours. Click to Edit. Copy the original text into a text file. Paste your story, submit edit. Look at the published story, correct mistakes. Edit the post back to original state, post corrected story here. The reason why you should use an old post is that no discussion is derailed by the sudden appearance of a fictional story. You can also do this ith posts on a differend message board, of course.
