Welcome!  You can use photobucket or FB even.  Any site that hosts pics, you can link to and post so we can check out your F.  Might as well start your own thread with lots of pics!   :thumb:

Do you just use the URL where your pic is on FB?
Thanks.

or if you dont facebook or any of that jazz this is what I use ... its quick and easy; it gives you links to your uploaded image in several formats (ie: tagged and set for message boards).  So literally just copy and paste it into your post.

Yep, but you will have to put the url in the image tags:  [.img][./img]  (Without the dots)

Thanks.

if you are using facebook links for photos, make sure you are copy/pasting the direct link to the photo. NOT the link to the page where comments can be made. best way to get this link is to right click on the image and select "view image" or "open image in new tab" this will give you the correct url. then like paulcet posted, paste that link into the brackets [.img]image url goes here[./img] (w/o dots)
