1. No.

I use photobucket.com.

2. Kick

3. If they are pics from your own computer you have to use a photo

posting/hosting site like www.photobucket.com If they are on a website and you have posted the URL, click the "Preview" button at the bottom of the posting window and they should appear before you post.

4. If it's just a pic from google images or something of that ilk, you can

right mouse click on the pic, click on properties, highlight and copy the URL address (also by right mouse clicking) and then go to the message box, right mouse click and hit "paste."



ON edit - I had to test it to make sure I gave you the right instructions.

13. my pleasure

but you could have used a clash picture as your test :cry:

:P

on edit: it's also a good idea to hit "preview" before posting pictures - it will cut down on posting red "x"s to people

18. I posted a picture of what I thought were Raman Noodles and

I could see noodles on my end of things, but everyone else saw "FUCK YOU HOTLINKER." I'm still laughing.
