1. Just type the URL for the picture's address.
You can't upload images from your computer to the boards. The image must be residing in webspace somewhere.

3. Here you go...
Right-click on the image, select "Properties", then copy & paste the "Address (URL)" into your post.

To upload images from your PC, you can try Photobucket: http://photobucket.com/

7. Suggestion...
If you've incorporated the FSM image into your sig line, you might want to open up a Photobucket account, upload the image there, then post your Photobucket image URL into your sig line... the image will still be available even if it disappears from the original site, and you won't be using the other site's bandwidth.

Photobucket: http://www.photobucket.com/

And welcome to DU! :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi:

4. I just went through this last night.

Go to the lounge - they are a bit more patient, I think - I'm sure before I finish writing you will have all the instructions you need.

If you want to post your own pix off your computer you need to go to
http://photobucket.com and sign up for a free account - find the instructions, upload your pix - edit to make them half the size, copy the top line into a post here and that should do it!
