To add your image into your forum message

Copy the image address (URL).

Go to the web page displaying the image you uploaded, in your case, Flickr.

In Internet Explorer, Right-Click on the image and select Properties to show the image address.

Select the entire URL (including the second line if necessary), then select “Ctrl C” to copy it to the Windows clipboard for the moment. Cancel the properties window.

Switch back to the Post New Message form.

Paste the image address into the message as a link or a displayed image.

Option 1: Make a link to the image using the URL space in the New Message form.

Select “Ctrl V” to paste the URL address into the Optional Link URL space provided at the bottom of Message Preview.

Add a Name of the Link to show a descriptive phrase for the image instead of the link address.

Option 2: Display the image in the message itself using formatting codes (an html image “tag”).

Type <img src=” file location and name”> in the body of the message.

For example: If your graphic is at wherever/~smith/garden/habanero.jpg,

you would insert <img src=” //wherever/~smith/garden/habanero.jpg”>.

Add an extra return above or below the image to group it with the appropriate text.

I hope this helps.

Have fun
