You need to create an account on an image hosting site (a free one preferably). When you upload your pics from your computer to the image host there will be something to click on that lets you copy the image direct link url. That should end in "jpg" for this forum I think.

Once you have copied that url you need to click on the insert image icon in the task bar when you are creating a post here. Paste the copied url for the image you want to post and paste it between the [img][img] tags that appear. Preview your post before submitting just to make sure the picture shows.

As far as which free image hosting site is concerned, I have no idea. I use imgur.com. It's good on windowz but very annoying on android but that could just be me being a numpty.

HTH

Will give it a go.

Imgur on Android isn't too diffocult - I can manage it.

It's the saving pictures without creating a post that fffed me off.

[Fretless]

Mark them as 'Hidden' rather than 'Public'.

[karatestu]

Silly me, I thought if they were hidden that nobody would see them

Okay trying to get this right so here should be two pictures of the set up I hope

[Fretless]

Yup. They're there.

But try using the Imgur picture link that ends in .jpg.
