This has probably been beatin to death but how do you put a pic in with your post? Do you just right click on the pic and click "copy", then "paste" in the field where you are typing the post? Or, do you link to the pic like when posting a pic on subguns? I there an FAQ on this site somewhere with info?

Hopefully not to stupid of a question.

Thanks in advance,

Mark

Most images here are on the internet somewhere, not on peoples computers.

meaning lets say you see the pic on NewsWeek.  Open the pic in a enw browser window and copy the location(URL).

Then in your thread post type (excluding quote marks)or paste the URL you copied as below:

"{img}http://www.hostname.com/whatever/pics/image.jpg{/img}"

Note: You need to replace the {  } with a [  ] for it to work

If you have a web host where you keep your own pictures (yahoo, tripod, MSN, aol, etc) do the same.  Find the pic in your browser, copy the link and follow above instructions.

Hope that helps
