Hotlinking

The simplest way is to "hotlink" to it from another website. Some websites however might not allow this.

Click on the image button from a post and then enter the complete URL to the image. Something like:

http://www.website.com/images/picture1.jpg

To find out what the URL of a picture is on the internet, right click on it and select properties.

Adding pictures as attachments

You can also add images as attachments to your posts. They will appear in the post as a small thumbnail, which people can click on to enlarge.

Click on the paper click icon within the post and then select the image you want to upload from your computer.

Add pictures to your own gallery

Similar to Facebook, you can upload images and create your own galleries. To upload pictures to a gallery:

1. Log into the site

2. Click "Settings" in the top right corner

3. Scroll down and you will see a menu on the left title "My Albums"

4. Click "create new album"

5. Add title, description etc.

6 Finally add your pictures.

Duh?
