I stink at it! Some things are just to taxing for my little brain (ok, a lot of things!)

Well, I don't use photobucket, but in a nutshell, once you have the address of the image itself (something starting with http and ending in jpg or some other file type) the syntax is pretty simple. In the example below replace the left and right square brackets ("[" and "]") with the less than/greater than symbols. (I can't use then here because the forum will try and interpret those symbols and they won't show.) And of course replace the address to whatever your image's address is.

[img src="http://www.your-url.com/your-folder/your-image.jpg";]

That's it.

Ok. Just looked at photobucket. They give you the url's for your pictures right on the page. Copy that and use it in the above syntax and everything should work fine.

Can Flicker be used to host the image?

Yes, Flickr should work just fine. As long as the host allows direct linking you should have no problems.

you can also go to the search box and type(for example) "photobucket" or "flicker". there are pages upon pages of the same question.don't worry it's easy.

if I can do it anyone can

Can I get somebody to come over to the house and do it for me or at least walk me through it... because I'm an idiot!

I think I posted two pictures about five years ago and that's it.

When is a good time for you, buddy?
