      Ok, I carefully followed the instructions about how to post photos in the forum. If the photo is hosted on photobucket it does not work, but I had no trouble posting an image from my Deviantart page.
      What am I doing wrong? Is this a photobucket thing?

        I ONLY use photobucket for image hosting, so that’s what I use when I post pictures to the forum.
        Are you using the correct link? Like… the .png, .jpg etc file? Photobucket got a new, kinda awful layout, so I’m speaking for the old one here. When you were in one of your folders and you moused over a picture, a couple (depending on your settings) links would pop up. Like, “Direct link” or “IMG code”. Use the “Direct link” when posting photos.
        If that doesn’t help, I don’t know :S

        In photobucket….click on the pic that you want to post so it is on the main viewing page….just off to the right of the pic is a box that says Image Links:
        There are 4 sub categories….click on HTML code and it will show copied in the box with yellow highlight…..come back to forum…right click and paste the info into the comment box here. That will make the image show up directly on the forum screen for you.

        Hope that helps

              Thank you for the complement on my foop. To have it from you really is an honor. 🙂
