    Hey there, Datiger. Welcome to Polycount.
    Firstly you can head over to the Pimping & Previews section and create a thread in there. Try and give as much information about your art as possible. Such as the triangle count of your mesh, the texture resolution, what your aims are with the piece, will it be used for anything (mod, personal project, folio piece, random art, study, etc). Things like that. This will in turn get you more relevant responses to what you're after.
    Secondly, you will have to upload any of your images to a webhost of some kind. If you don't have your own hosting available, there are tonnes of free image hosting solutions available for you online (imageshack, photobucket, etc - I think there's a thread in here listing a good bunch, I'll have a look in a bit).
    Thirdly, make some art, upload it and then link it in your thread using the tags, or theInsert Image button (the yellow one with a mountain and a sun).
    Finally, the comments and critique that you'll recieve here will be some of the best you'll receive anywhere. This forum is full of industry artists with tonnes of experience, so be prepared to listen no matter how harsh the comments are.
    Now get to pimping!

    welcome, and I'd just like to put in that this is one of the most polite introductions I've seen here on polycount so you have a good start so far haha, this place can be pretty hardcore. follow caseys instructions and you should be good, if you have any other questions I'm sure you can ask them here as well.

    welcome

    You know. I actually don´t get the "image"buttons or any other buttons for that matter when i write my posts (Even if i go advanced). Is it a firefox issue or something else?

    PS: Hey dude ! ;D

    Just under the banner, Click User CP then on the left hand side under Settings & Options select Edit Options.
    Then scroll right to the bottom to Miscellaneous Options text box and change the Message Editor Interface drop down menu to Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing.
