Hi ThPharce -

Easy Peasy.

This is a link to a photo on my web site -

http://www.iammoon.com/albums/knives/JK Knife/Group Shots/slides/DSC_4036.JPG

The above is called an image url, or the address of an image that is hosted somewhere on the web. It cannot be a file on your local hard drive (c://knife_picture.jpg).

Now all you do is put image "tags" around the image to tell the forum software to display the image in your post -



[img]http://www.iammoon.com/albums/knives/JK%20Knife/Group%20Shots/slides/DSC_4036.JPG[/img]

Your image link in tags -

The above will result in :

For some reason when you copied your image URL, there was an extra slash at the end that broke the link -



best regards -

Actually, i think he was using the wrong URL, it is different from the one you posted as his.


(Wrong URL)

(Right URL)

Frustrating, aint it? I use to design and manage web sites and it still drives me nuts at times.

There is a thread in the Photography forum that might be helpful.
