how do i post pictures on this topic?.... please help

There are 2 ways.

If you are taking a picture from the internet, you can right click it and choose 'copy image url', then you paste it in the topic. You then have to add at the end of the link.( except it has to be lower case)

If you are using pics from your computer, you will have to use a site like photobucket or tinypic. I use tinypic. Upload a photo and it will generate a link for you - says for use on forums. Copy it, paste it into your topic but make sure to change the IMG to lower case. Hope that helps.

That one would have worked as is but for two things.. you forgot the [ img] and [ /img] tags.. remove the leading space inside of each bracket
[ img] http://list-of-birthstones.com/Pictures of Birthstones/Diamonds birthstones.jpg [ /img]
AND you have to edit it slightly... spaces aren't ideal in the URL because they are replaced in MFP by %20
so your actual URL to load a picture of the diamond is
[ img] http://list-of-birthstones.com/Pictures of Birthstones/Diamonds birthstones.jpg [ /img]
remove the leading space in each bracket and you get
[img]http://list-of-birthstones.com/Pictures of Birthstones/Diamonds birthstones.jpg[/img]

to get JUST the "code" that will display the picture you right click on the picture that is displayed.. and "copy image location" at least in firefox that's what it says. then paste that location and surround it with the

[ img] [ /img] tags

if you can right click on the image in flickr and do the copy image location then yes you should be able to.. there should be options for sharing, that's the "point" of flickr and umm...photobucket? to host a picture so you can share it easily?
you might be presented with a few choices of links in the "share this"
you're looking for one that has http:// BLAH BLAH the host, your folder name, the picture name AND ends in a typical "image" ending... jpg, gif, png if you don't have "that" ending the system doesn't know you are trying to link to a picture despite the "img" "/img" tags
