    Your photo needs to be loaded on another site and then just use img tags around the link. For instance:

    [ img ] http://www.somesite.com/photo1.jpg [ /img ]

    You put [ img ] before the link and [ /img ] after the link.

    Note: I put spaces between the brackets and img tags so they would show up. When you actually post a photo don't put those spaces.

    And turn off your caps lock.

    This happened to me when I tried to post a photo - although the photo I was trying to post was clearly not deleted.

    From photobucket, use the "direct url" link and wrap in img brackets.

    There is a % sign in the link. For some reason MFP won't post links with it. I think you an rename the album.

    Use just this part

    http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m117/sjaplo/20140722_154616.jpg

    In between the lower case IMG. You can quote to see how I have it.

    ETA - Nevermind. You got it
