Do you have a photobucket account? They do all the work for you, all you do is upload it and copy and paste the code

yep photobucket is where it's at for photos and videos. upload the stuff from your desktop to it, and it will give you the tag.

Rich-

If the photo is hosted somewhere (website, your photobucket, etc) you can post the picture by this code:

Picture'sURL

Or when posting click on this http://www.race-dezert.com/forum/images/editor/insertimage.gificon and the forum will prompt you to insert the URL to the image hosted on another website such as photobucket. This is the same as using the [img] tags.

To get the URL of an image hosted anywhere on the internet right click on the image and select "properties" if using Firefox or IE. then you can copy the URL listed of the image and paste it in a post here.

This holds true for most websites and images. Some websites wont allow the remote linking of images and consider it stealing, some actualy prevent you from doing so.

It wont work for flash / shockwave /.swf images.

Hope that helps.
