How do you insert a picture in a post? I tried copy and paste and that didn't work. Figured it would be quicker to ask.

Thanks

    You can use something like tinypic.com. That's pretty easy. Just upload and forget about it.

    you don't need that.

    right click on a photo, click view image source, there will be a link



    [ img] Copy that link here [/ img] (minus space)


    and bingo.

    You can upload a new photo to your profile and link to it from there. No other account necessary.

    I uploading this one, just to test.

    Works fine if it's already on the internet. Doesn't work if it's his personal pic on his computer....

    Click on the photo first, so it's the one in the larger box, above... then copy image location from there, and it'll be bigger.
