Could someone please explain how to get the link that you use to insert in between the "img /img"?

Thanks.

If you are just posting a picture from another site such as Google, you can just drag the pic and drop it between the img tabs.
If you are posting a pic that you have taken with a camera, you must first download it to a photo hosting website and then copy and paste the code or address between the img tabs.

I use http://tinypic.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; . It's free and fairly simple to use.

I use photobucket http://photobucket.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (also free)
and you can click an uploaded image there and it offers options ... one will already have the img /img codes on it do you just copy paste that whole code/link

hold your mouse over any photo on this link to see what I mean ... IMG code is the bottom one http://s342.photobucket.com/albums/o433 ... 2QQtppZZ16" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; you'd just click that code to copy it. then paste it here (CTRL V or paste with mouse)

here's a smiley face emoticon eating a mouse arrow I have on my page 9 there


So, if you have a photo on your computer, you can upload to photobucket


some photos online may be copyrighted
to put photos ON your computer in my pictures, use camera/memory, or online photos, which you can right click on a photo on the web and safe file
(Some websites prefer this, so each time a forum page loads, it doesn't load a photo from the originating website, using their bandwidth)
Others want you to link their photo, but want you to post a link to their site ... because they are a business. ...........

I see now, I kinda thought that's what you had to do but I wasn't completely sure. Thanks for the responses!

Got it!
