I put some instructions up a while ago, I'll hunt them out and paste them here.
Got them:
> Click on the down arrow beside 'share' (above the photo)
> From the 'Grab the HTML/BBCode' make sure the dot is in the BBCode option
> Copy the link in the box and post on the forum, you don't need to select 'insert image' or anything additional

Some more photos here to add to the jealousy. And maybe even another video to come.

Loving your wee dog in the snow!
-
Great pics, looked like a cracking day!
-
Top dog !!!
-
Well done for tackling that weather,you really did take some flipping great photos,karma earned
-
Yes Charlie the dog was loving the snow it was a brilliant day fingers crossed for more snow in February Hope to meet up with some of you soon Hav fun ;)
-
great pics, what day were you up there? looks like the sunday when we didn't make it above the saddle as the snow was stinging the face badly, well done for getting to the top
-
The pictures were taken last Saturday morning the steep pull up to the saddle was very windy snow flying around and was painful on the face. We decided to have a go at the summit and found that the wind lessened the closer we got to the top at the very top there was no wind at all very eerie and peaceful so it was pretty special. I would really like to join you guys on a summit camp soon I need to get a sleeping bag liner and some other bits and bobs but I hope to be ready in the next few weeks :) thanks for your comments my mate graham took a lot of the photographs actually !
-
Very nice pics lads !!!!!!!!
-
Love the one with style covered in snow.
