Alright, here's a real dum-dum question...

How do you post an image into your post? I see the "IMG" tags on the menu , but what do I stick in there? I know that I can't cut and paste a saved image from my computer (well, I *think* that I can't) because every time that I've tried to right click and paste after the IMG tag, the only option I have is UNDO, DELETE, or SELECT ALL.

Just wondering...

thx,
melissa

You have to insert a URL to that picture between the image tags--the image needs to be hosted on a web server/webpage somewhere. http://www.imageshack.com is a good (free) image hosting service. You can load your image there, and it will give you a URL that you can use to come and post the picture here.
