Whoops sorry!!! i mean www.imageshack.us - they give you the links for your pics to show up on your posts - though maybe photobucket does it too....

Photobucket lets you create an online album for others, like mine - see the link at the bottom of this post - lots of us have album links like this in our signatures.

Silly Jo - must be monday mode...

Yeah, its not the prettiest but it does a good job.

Once you've uploaded your image using photobucket, underneath it it has a few boxes, if you click them it will 'Copy' the text to your clipboard.

So.. to post an image directly click on the box next to where it says 'IMG Code', then when editing/creating a post on here just press CTRL+V (or right click and select 'Paste' from the menu) and you'll get something like

[img=http://link.photobucket.com/something/somepic.jpg]

There are regulations with regards to size on the forums etc, but I dont want to complicate the issue any further! lol Not supposed to be wider than 800 pixels if possible though.

If it is too big, then just link to your image by removing the and bits, then people can just click to view it in another window.

Depending on your internet skill, it may take a few goes :) Its all good
