Find the image online

Right click

Look at image properties

Copy the location info which begins with http://......

if you right click on this image you'll see "Address (URL) thats the part that counts


Paste it into your post but..

Forum rules ask you not to use other peoples banswidth to host the image unles they don't mind.

For the above I just pasted in the URL of the location on the hosting site that my image resides at.

Are you asking for a place where you can upload your images?

There's a few free ones around but not many.

If you right click on the image I posted you should see the location of it.

4. You have to upload them to the net first
to a site that allows "hotlinking." Sites like Geocities and Tripod no longer allow it, due to high bandwidth use. Someone here had info on places to upload that allow hotlinking, but I don't have the info right now.

Good luck. It's pretty self-explanatory.
