In order to help anybody having difficulties posting pictures on this site I thought a few notes may come in handy.
To display a picture in a post you need to use the Img button that you will see to the top right above the box you are typing your post text in. Once pressed this will create an [Img] piece of code. You then need to post the URL of the picture you want to post and then press the Img button again. Job done!
To get the URL of a picture you need to view the source. On a Mac this can be done by clicking and holding on the picture and opening it in a new window. Then simply copy the URL from your browser address bar and paste it into the message as detailed above. On a PC this can be done by right clicking and then clicking on 'Properties'. The URL will appear in the window that opens. Again copy this and paste it as above.
If you have pictures on your hard drive and wish to host them somewhere for posting then use a site such as www.muchos.co.uk or www.photobucket.com
Muchos allows you to upload 10 pictures and will even show you the URL with [IMG] tags either side to paste into your message (Use the 'Show Ubb codes' or Message board codes' link and select the second one down with [IMG] in it).
Photobucket is great and once you've signed up and uploaded a pic it even show the URl underneath it so you can copy and then paste it into your message using the [IMG] buttons as described above.
I hope this helps, but please, any problems send me a message and I'll do my best to help further.

Re: picture hosting on this site
Could you say what will appear on the screen when you carry out your instructions? When I press img I get so where is the code and then when I press url this appears where do I post the url and then I press img again and get this ?
Nothing happened as it seems I haven't put the details in the right locations.

Re: picture hosting on this site
Just post the URL of your picture in between the IMG tags no need to press the URL button
If you use photobucket just copy the IMG link and post it straight
Into a thread
