you can't use one from your computer unless you can upload it to a website. pics have to be on a website to appear here...
Re: computer help
blitz is correct! if you need a website to host your pictures, try asking your internet provider.

thanks. If I have a website to get the image from how do I post it here. Dont forget not too swift with comps
shoes, when you have the picture open, you need to right click on it and copy the address and then paste it in here with the image tags.
For example:
![url]](/forum/proxy.php?image=http%3A%2F%2F%5Burl%5Dwww.yousuck.com%5B%2Furl%5D&hash=54b36c7dd0b872f3e2d2f86678e7ca39)
But don't use spaces!
For example:

Find the image on the web, Stop.
Right click on image, Stop.
Select properties, Stop.
You will see the URL of the image(www.whatever.com/img),Stop.
Copy the URL of the image, stop.
Now your ready to put it on the post.........
Open your post, stop.
click on the IMG button above your reply, stop.
That will open a box, stop.
Right click inside the box and select paste, stop.
There you go, now you have inserted a picture in your post.

And this is your image....

It appears that you probably want to send, not an image, but a
URL.
If you want to send one of the images on the page, you'll have to find a url of exactly the image, not just the webpage. Otherwise, judging by the source code of your text, it looks like you did it right.

FYI - You are not actually taking the picture. What you are doing is instructing a person's internet browser to go to the url and display the picture. If this website changes or takes the picture off of their site, it will be gone from here also.
Go back to the page that you want to take the picture from.
right click on the image you want
go to properties
copy the address (URL) portion
come back to your thread
post reply or new thread
Click IMG (Important - on your first attempt you had http:// in there twice. When you click IMG go ahead and delete the http:// that first pops up because when you paste you will already have the http:// in your url line)
Right click and paste
Submit
And admire your picture
Now that I've typed this I hope mine works
Good Luck
Only thing is that you should save the picture on your computer and upload it to your own website just in case something happens to the website you're getting the picture from!
Other guys have posted good info on how to save the picture. Good luck!
