this is how i understand it!

u need to upload the picture onto the internet. Then u can copy and paste it into a thread.

1 Save your pics onto your PC in my pictures or something

2 open an account on a website like photobucket.com or imageshack.com

3 through photobucket etc load the pic's up on to your account page.

4 now it's saved on your photobucket account u can just copy and paste it into a thread.

I've had a go at explaining but it's not one of my talents!
Someone else will help!

the FAQ section will help too!

You use the "direct link to image" and put [img]before%20it%20and[/img] after.

But where's that? I can't find it.

Doesn't that mess need to be shortened?
On the screen you get just after loading a pic onto ImageShack, if you scroll to the bottom there'll be a box with a "Direct link to image" in it, you've just gotta copy that.

You could use it as your signature pic or this resized one for your avatar ?
