    Once you upload the photo to the site, right-click it and select "Copy image URL." Then to put it on this forum, paste the address with [ img ] in front and [ /img ] at the end (without spaces).

    i went to my profile, his edit and uploaded my profile pic. it says you can upload more so i guess that's how. i have hundreds of photos on fb and will keep them there. i don't want to add pics on here. i'm not ashamed of how i look at all, i just don't want to do it because every time i've put pics on any site i get jerk guys wanting to hook up or whatever. happens all the time on fb but it's easier to block them there.

    what address?
    When you click on "Copy image URL" it will automatically copy the address for you; when you use the paste command (either Ctrl+V or right-click > Paste) it will paste it for you and link straight to the picture. All you have to do is add the [ img ] tags (lowercase and without the spaces).
