Seeking advice on how to put photos directly into a topic thread or when making a reply.

Thank you.

The way I do this is by using Flickr, but any hosting website works fine too.

For example if I was going to include a picture into this reply, I would first press the IMAGE button above the smiley faces. (The one that has a mona lisa on it)

The result after pressing said button is this:                     (Without the full stops)

[.i.m.g.]   [/img]

You then have to copy and paste the link from your picture between the two parts that say [img]. Sometimes you can enter the direct url or sometimes I find I have to right click on the image I want and then select "Copy link address" or "Copy image URL"

Example being
[.i.m.g.]www.examplehostingsite.com/myaccount/IMG001 [./.i.m.g.]         (Again without full stops)

Does this help at all?
