all you have to do... is go to the image on different page and right click on it and select properties...

when you do that a page will pop up and in it will have

Address: http://mysite.verizon.net/vze3n3zb/obj9geo10p9.jpg
URL

you then copy the address and in your post you him the Img button to put the [img]up%20in%20front...%20then%20paste%20the%20address%20after..%20and%20hit%20the%20Img%20again%20to%20put%20up%20thte[/img] and then that should do it... like this...

that should do it for you..ok?

It is beacuse your linking a refence to the picture and not the "real" picture location...

You needed to cut it off at .jpg

I think it needs to be .jpg or .gif to work.

I've learned that long pathnames with strange characters sometimes don't work. Using Netscape, you right-click -> View Image and then you copy that URL from your browser to the post window. Highlight the whole thing and click on the IMG button and the tags are added and then hit Submit. Since you can go back an edit, just keep trying 'til you get it.

Since your image shows up now, you either figured this out, or the Mod Fairies came to your assistance. :wink:

BTW, cool Avatar! It's nice to see such artistic diversity across the Board.
