[Gizzie]

  Wooo hooo I did it!!

  I was watching you! I knew you would get it! 

[Gizzie]

If any one stops in here, can you please tell me how to post pictures...not from photobucket but from news sites, etc. 

I dont have a photobucket account and usually just want to add pics to the news articles I post.  A big monkey thanks!

Right click the photo that you want to include & go to properties.  Under address (URL) you will see the direct link.  Copy that link and paste it onto your quote.  Highlight link and make it an "image" by putting it in the image bracketts.  Here's an example from our local paper, quote my response so you can see how I did it.  I hope this helps as I am not the best at explaining things...

You can do it.    What I do is copy the embedded code to the reply box, hit preview and the link you want to copy actually shows up in blue in the preview area.   click on it, and the youtube pops open.   then copy the link from there, and go back and paste this in the reply box, and delete all the other stuff you put there earlier.

then highlight it, and hit the flash button (which is located directly below the bold bottom above).

Now, try it again.
