Im not realy knowing alot about computer lingo and stuff so i was wondring if anyone could explain to me what this says i get most of it but some of the stuff i dont get what its telling me to do, what im trying to do is put a upload from image shack on my forum for post reply, here is the document how to get it on the forum:

These instructions will help you to install 'ImageShack on your Site' into the reply and post-new-thread sections of your phpBB message board, thus giving your visitors the ability to upload images directly. After upload, they may paste the images directly into their post box.

Skip these instructions if you use the subSilver template and you have not installed any forum mods in the past. Simply right-click and save posting_body.tpl and upload it into your templates/SubSilver directory. Make sure to set your posting_body.tpl permissions to 777 during copy, and set it back to whatever it was after copy. Make sure to make a backup of your file before making any modifications.

The files that you will be working with are located in the following directory:

/home/USER_NAME/www/YOUR_FORUM_DIRECTORY/templates/SubSilver

If you are using different template (not subSilver), please go to the directory associated with THAT different template.

Open posting_body.tpl . You can do this by using ftp to download the file posting_body.tpl , and then uploading it back once you are finished editing it.
search for the following instance:
<td class="row1" valign="top"><span class="explaintitle">{L_OPTIONS}:</span><br />
<span class="gensmall">{HTML_STATUS}<br />
{BBCODE_STATUS}<br />
{SMILIES_STATUS}</span>
<td class="row2">



Go to http://imageshack.us/syndicate.php and copy the iframe code from the Code Selection Box.
Paste the code DIRECTLY AFTER the code that you searched for.
Save your changes. Login to your message board. Either click "Post New Thread" or reply to an existing thread in order to test out your new Image Hosting Service!

he files that you will be working with are located in the following directory:

/home/USER_NAME/www/YOUR_FORUM_DIRECTORY/templates/SubSilver

If you are using different template (not subSilver), please go to the directory associated with THAT different template.It means that if you had a template which was called, eg. "RandomTemplate", the path would be:
/home/USER_NAME/www/YOUR_FORUM_DIRECTORY/templates/RandomTemplate

But you follow exactly the same instructions.
