I'm new at this so I'm trying to see if I can post a pic. Love this site!

Cannot see it...

Are you trying to attach a pic that you uploaded or are you inserting an image that is physically hosted on another web site..?

If attaching.... first you "add an attachment", then "insert it inline".
If it's hosted off site, you use the IMG tags and put the http location of the image in between with no spaces.

Cheers.

EDIT: Your "\" should be "/"
EDIT: Using photobucket, you should select the "IMG Code" link... then you just paste it in here.. You would NOT need to use the Img button in the editor here... the photobucket IMG Code link already contains the Img tags..

Thanks for the response. Someone mentioned photobucket so I opened an account there and that's where I uploaded the image.

Oops... wrong guy...

1. your img tag is not correct... you have [\img]... should be [/img]
and..
2. use the "Img Code" tag from photobucket. This is the correct link and already contains the Img tag information.

your http:// link is to the website page, not to the image's location. It is at
