Just use the scrying workshop to make see what your hatchling will look like as an adult, right-click the image and select "copy image link" and then just use that in your forum thread in the place of the adult preview... or, if you're like me and like shorter image links, make an imgur account (it's free and easy) and you can upload the image to your own imgur account and use imgur's "bbcode share" button to automatically format the image link to work with the forums. I say that you should make an imgur account because if you don't the image could be deleted, and if you need to find it again at any time you won't be able to. But if you have an account, it will always be under your uploaded images.

How to make your hatching's bbcode image smaller:

I'm sure (I hope) you're familiar with how to generate your dragon's bbcode. If not, here's a quick refresher (or first-time lesson, for newbies):

Step 1:

You can find a dragon's bbcode by clicking this button. It's in that same location on every dragon's page.

Step 2:

The highlighted is the bbcode. The one below it is for html, which we don't want, because FlightRising's forums use bbcode. Highlight and copy the bbcode for the hatchling you want to list.

Step 3:

Paste it in your forum thread. If you're using my preview template, and you just paste the code and preview it, it would look something like this:

Step 5:
