How to include photo?

I see messages in the repair help forum which include photos but can't figure out how it's done. Photos are a big help there. How is it done? Thanks.

When you go to crate a message will see some icons in the tools bar above where you write the message. One looks like a mountain with the sun in the sky. The is the insert image icon. When you click on it a box will pop up saying please insert the URL of your image. on the line will be http://.

You would first have to have uploaded an image to one of the many free photo storage sites on the web. The URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of the picture will be shown on the web page when you view the picture. You can Copy and paste the URL in the pop up box to make it easier or type it in.

You link to web page virtually the same way using the icon of the world and 8 lying on it's side. Example: Blog
In your message it will look like this in the area where type http://festivacentralblogspot.com with "[URL=" the link within quotes followed by "[/URL]" When you click on Preview Post it will show how it really looks in the message.
This links to a blog that I set up a couple days ago.
For the guys that have been using forms for a long time this is old hat.
It take some trial an error when you are getting used to it.
If I can help further reply with more question.
