Click the Img button and put the url in between the tags that appear.... but make sure the url's you are copying and pasting have a .jpg or other image suffix, or else they will not show up. Sometime you have to play around with the url or the Properties feature by right-clicking to get one that works.....

If the photo exists on the web somewhere, right-click it to get its properties, copy the URL and put it between "Img" tags in your post. Its URL must end in an extension that the bored recognizes as a photo, such as .jpg, .bmp, .png, etc.

If it's your own photo, it still must reside elsewhere on the web. Most people here upload them either to photobucket or flickr, get the url and reference them there.

My failsafe method: go crying to Estonut, who takes care of it in less time than it takes me to whine about it
Innocent, naive and whimsical. And somewhat footloose and fancy-free.

Why add photos when you can add Youtube videos on the subject?

It would be better if this Bored actually used HTML. Our tags are similar, but not the same.

I know- it was as close as I could find in a couple minutes' search.
