    For pictures copy the url, and place it inside the image code by clicking on image in the posting area. To embed a video just copy the url, and it will instantly imbed.

    For youtube videos, just put the link. For a picture, you need to put the link to a photo on a site like photobucket in the image code thingy. You can't upload pics/videos straight from your computer.

    Hope I helped :)

    So let me get this straight. For pictures, just copy the full URL and place it in the image thing at the top of the post box, and for a video, just simply type the full URL, and when I post it, it'll come up? Does all of that sound correct?

    Much thanks! It was funny back in the summer between my 7th and 8th grade years, because I watched FRWL the movie for the first time after having completed the game on Gamecube, and compared to the short and lacking fight they use for the game, this was just what I needed!

    talos7: That link is not an image. You need to put the url of the <i>image</i>, not the page containing it.

    Time to close this, questions answered.
