    I still use imgur.com - I recommend setting up an account. Get the URL when you post the picture there, then in the editor here, click on the Image button on the toolbar and paste in the URL.

    If you use Instagram, you can also paste the URL from Instagram and the post will automatically display a linked image.

    Once you click on the message window to start typing, choose the image icon (2nd from left). After copying the image address from your picture (from an image hosting site), enter in the window, press return and presto :thumbsup:

    Quick primers I posted for somebody else a ways back:

    Flickr ---
    Two ways - click on the SHARE PHOTO icon and choose BBCode; cut n' paste the size of your choice here.
    [​IMG]
    OR, and this is handy, click on the DOWNLOAD PHOTO icon, choose View all sizes,
    [​IMG]
    pick one, and then either right click to copy the code and put that in brackets here - Example:
    Code:
    https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4332/36979769862_5a065f2832_c.jpg
    would go in the tag like so:
    [img]https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4332/36979769862_5a065f2832_c.jpg[/img]
    or, from the same page, you can just right click on the pic, select COPY IMAGE, and then just paste that here; no code necessary!

    [​IMG]

    Instagram ---
    Extract the pic ID itself and place just that between IG tags:
    Code:
    Not https://www.instagram.com/p/Ba9-2WPnwjs/
    but Ba9-2WPnwjs
    And not https://www.instagram.com/p/BbvYyzpnHGs/
    but BbvYyzpnHGs
    Then:
    [INSTA]Ba9-2WPnwjs[/INSTA]
    [INSTA]BbvYyzpnHGs[/INSTA]
    
    Presto!


    Hope this helps.
