So your trying to link out to an external site, i believe this is the only way to do it.

If you look at the image i posted, its hosted on my own web server at home, (http://yarrum.co.uk/monster/myavatar.png)

Some hosting sites like Flickr don't allow direct links to the content.

If the files aren't too big ill host them for you.

I appreciate the offer, the thing is I have posted pictures before, probably from the 'paper clip' icon, so I must be doing something different or wrong.

I'm going to come right out of the site and shut down and see if I can get up and running again.

What would you suggest a decent hosting site would be, remembering I'm not too clever at this computer wizardry

I use www.postimages.org/signup.

Once you've uploaded your picture, click on the 'share' icon and select the 'hotlink for forums' address, copy it and paste it into your post.



If you preview the post before submitting it, the picture will appear in the preview if you've done it correctly.
