Your First Upload¶
This guide gets you from zero to a working gallery upload in under 5 minutes, using TurboImageHost — no credentials required.
1. Enable TurboImageHost¶
In the right panel, you'll see the Upload Workers table listing all available hosts. Right-click turboimagehost and select Enable Host.
2. Add a Gallery¶
Drag a folder of images from your file manager into the main gallery table. The folder name becomes the gallery name. BBDrop will scan the images automatically.
You can also drag ZIP, RAR, or 7Z archives — BBDrop will extract them and queue the contents.
Tip
You can also use File > Add Folders or the Windows Explorer right-click menu to add galleries.
3. Start the Upload¶
Click Start in the toolbar, or right-click the gallery and select Start Selected. You'll see progress update in real time — image count, percentage, and upload speed.
4. Get Your BBCode¶
When the upload completes, the gallery status changes to Completed. Right-click the gallery and choose Copy BBCode to copy the generated BBCode to your clipboard.
You can also click View BBCode to preview it, or find the saved BBCode file in the .uploaded subfolder inside your gallery folder.
