How Can I Get My CAD Drawings On Here?

Well, I Have Tons Of Em But I Cant Figure Out How To Get On Forums?

What format are the CAD drawings in? If they are .dwg files, then you are going to have a hard time in attaching them for viewing in the forum. I'd suggest (if you are using AutoCAD) exporting the .dwg file to a PDF first, then saving that PDF file as a .jpg. I've tried exporting straight from ACAD to a .jpg and the quality SUCKED!! Doing the two-step process yields the best results, for me. Once you have the .jpg file, then attaching them is pretty easy, assuming you have an account with photobucket or something similar.

Just open up the file in your CAD program, rotate it to a good angle, and then do a print screen and paste it into paint. Then just save as a .jpg, host, and post. ;-)

That is a good idea. You can also send them to me and I can convert them in the program I have.

Moved to Chit Chat, there's no tech here.

That's how I did these. With the print screen method.

I try to get rid of all the cap on the sides so that the image can be as large as possible.
