    I get the feeling that haven't asked the question properly.

    The posts which contain Tweets which look exactly like they do on Twitter

    How is that done?


    Nicklouse, if you'd rather not be helpful, it would be better just not to post a response at all.

    Like I said you can't.

    Or some how copy if and quote it as you would with any other text firm anywhere.

    @KrytenK: I found this in the photo collection and after literally, seconds of intense deliberation, I settled on this caption: http://t.co/dzRIwqNasK

    Is this what you mean?

    Maybe they're screenshots posted as photos?

    Those are just screenshots posted as images.

    It is possible to get tweets embedded on some forums, but requires admins to install the Twitter plugin for phpBB.

    Short answer: Not possible, just screenshot, or copy paste text.
