hey
jake, like everyone else appreciate you trying to clear this up once and for all. But like pirlo it confuses me why people find it so hard, even when its been covered so many times

It only takes two steps: Upload to webspace, then link into your post.
In detail....
- The pictures have to be stored
somewhere on the internet so people can then see them.
- With some web forums, they store them on the same server automatically (so you would just press an add picture button and browse through your computer and upload them to the speakerplans server or whatever) but due to the number of users and space limitations of this site we can't to that.
- Instead you have to find your own space on the internet to store them, and then use the picture button when your writing your speakerplans post to link to them.
- You have two options, firstly if you have webspace of your own for your own website and stuff you can use that to also store your pictures. Or if you dont have your own webspace already you can sign up for a free service like Flickr or ImageShack and store your photos there.
- Either way, once you have uploaded them to the relevent place you copy the URL....
(if your using your own webspace as I do this will be www.mysite.com/myfolder/mypicture.jpg or whatever, and if your using a free service they give you the link to copy and paste.).....and then on the post you are writing on the forum press the insert image button and paste this address in.
and thats it, the pic will now come up in the post.
