I'm a bit stupid with the upload of an image that is stored on a file in my computer to this forum. I've read that it is not possible (forum FAQ)
please assist
Thanks

open a photobucket account, upload the photos to it.. then when you are viewing the thumbnails of the photos in ur account on photobucket.. you will find that when you move the cursor over a pic.. a little box appears under the picture giving you 4 or 5 links..

you want to right click and copy the link that has [img] at the start of it.. then come back here to the post you are making and right click paste.

example the link would be like this

[img]photobucket.com/blahblahblahblahblahblalbhalbkhabl[/img]

but instead of seeing the link like my example it will show the picture.. but if you move the photo in ur photobucket account to say a different album the picture here will no longer show unless you update [img][/img] with the new link to where you moved it..

I use the HTML link to format the photo to the forum size. It prevents the need to scroll to see the entire photo.
