Putting images with your posts

Post by Ocean Raider »

Whenever i want to put an image with my post it always comes up with a box that says image and has a cross in the top corner.
How do i get an image to show?

Right click on the image you wish to copy.

Click on "Properties".

This will throw up a "Properties" box.

Copy the Address (URL)... It would look like this:

http://www.news.com.au/common/imagedata ... 855,00.jpg

ie generally it will be a .jpg file.

Paste in the URL on a GH post and highlight it and click on Img (above).

That's it.

From there you can host the image on line (by uploading it onto the site) and use the URL they give you to put it into your post.
