I know he posted a guide to this but I'm beggared if I can find it. Any chance of summarizing it and putting it as a sticky on one of the pages?
I seem to be able to mange to post the links but can't see the pictures?

Tor;
There are a row of boxes across the top of the box you type in when posting a message. Before pasting in the link to a picture, click the one second from the right, labeled Img then paste in your link then click the Img box again. The first click will get you this [img],%20then%20the%20second%20click%20will%20get%20you%20this[/img]. You have to click,paste,click for each photo.
the link to a photo will look something like this, in your post, they will show as pictures once your submit the post, and as long as the pictures reside on that hosting site:
[img]your.link.to.your.photo.hosting.site[/img]
[img]your.link.to.your.photo.hosting.site[/img]
[img]your.link.to.your.photo.hosting.site[/img]

I use Photobucket as my image hosting site. It is free and works OK for me.
When you select the image in photobucket, directly under the image, left click on the one titles Direct Link. It is the second one down.
then right click and the text starting Http will be highlited and a drop down box should appear. Left click on copy, then come back to your post here.
Above the message box, and 2nd from the right, left click on "Img"
and
[img]
will appear below your message.
Move your cursor to the immediate right of the [Img] and right click,
The drop down bar will appear again, Left click on paste and the direct ling will appear.
Now all you have to do is go back to the "Img" box above your post and left click it again.
This [/img] should appear immediately to the right of the direct link.
Hope this helps mate.
Regards,
Mick

Thanks Chaps,
Got it, in fact the forth box in the photobucket is exactly that just didn't think about the img being image.
sorted,
Tor
