How can I upload an essay?
     First become a member of the eCheat community by registering. Then log in and browse to the category you would like your essay to be placed in. Click the Post New Essay link and fill out the appropriate fields. Alternatively you can visit our upload page and select your desired category from our dropdown box. If you have a large number of papers to add to our public archive and are unable to upload them yourself you may e-mail them to webmaster@echeat.com and we can upload them for you.

Can I upload essays with pictures, tables, and/or graphs?
     Our database allows you to add pictures to your essays as long as they are stored on another server. Save your graphics as either JPEG's or GIF's. In the case of tables and graphs, either use the EXPORT option (usually under the FILE menu) or simply take a screenshot and crop out your desired image in a graphics editor, then store them on your server. Then in the essay body upload field type in the phpBB code [img] and then the URL of your image and finally [/img] to close the tag. Now anytime someone views this paper your image will appear. If you have a large number of images and don't have a reliable server to store them on e-mail them to webmaster@echeat.com and we can store them on our server for you.

Isn't the point of this site to help students cheat?
     No, eCheat was created to provide a reference for students writing papers. The essay format is the most logical structure for conveying information, or a particular viewpoint in a concise manner. For more on this subject please refer to our Terms of Use.

Can I use this site without plagiarizing?
