Hi

I am wondering how do you get photos to post in forums, I know there is this little thing  that you can  upload you photo link between, but everytime I try that, it just shows this , So I guess my question is how to you get the photos to show on the post with out people veiwing it needing to click on the link?

You need to have the actual image linked, not just the page that it sits on.  You'll know that you have the image if the bit after the http ends with something like .jpg, .png, or some other image extension.

The easiest way to find the right link is to right click on the photo itself, then select 'View Image'.  This should take you to a page with nothing but the image showing (no background, no 'forward/next' buttons, etc.)  Select the bit in your browser's address bar, and that should embed properly.
