I found it confusing and then was intimidated when i tried at first....then someone simplified it for me. In my case i use photobucket but no for any particular reason. 1.Pick a site. 2.Follow directions they give to upload your pictures from your computer 3. in My case under the picture will appear a URL ...right click it to highlight 4. copy 5. Go to where you want to post picture...in your response here for instance 5. Put cursor where you want picture to appear 6. Paste the URL you copied. No need to add anything before or after. It will appear only as a URL until you submit the response and then the picture will appear. Same goes for video...it will place a frame and arrow to allow reader to directly play the video from your post.
If I can do it you sure can too. It is nice feature and is especially appreciated in threads such as America the Beautiful in the Showdown section of the forum. Hope it helps. If not PM and I'll have you call me and we will walk through he process. John
The forum has rules that limit the size of the pictures that can be posted as attachments, avatars and signatures. Your thumbnails are working like they're supposed to.
For bigger pictures I use the method described by Flibuoy's but I use photobucket and copy/paste the image box rather than the URL.
All I did with his picture above was to use the image tags before and after the url to Duecexs2's picture. Works the same way as if the picture was hosted on photobucket.
Look at post #11, WildBill listed how it was done.
