Hi
I clicked on the insert image icon but can not load a photo. Does anyone know how to do that?

Hi Nicola!  You need to upload the image to an image hosting site such as imageshack.us.  Imageshack will give you the codes to copy and paste here (use the one that says hotlink for forums).  Hope that helps.  Smiley

Or when you find the picture you want. Right click on your mouse over the picture. A menu pops up and click on Properties. Then a box with information will show up. Find the address (URL) and copy it.

 

Then when you are ready to post the picture, click on the picture  icon and paste the address. Check to make sure your picture showed up.

The only problem with that is you are direct linking to someone else's server and using their bandwidth.  They may have it coded to show something like this instead:


So be careful when direct linking.  Smiley
