Use this button to insert an image. Copy and paste the entire web address in the pop up window to show your picture. It must be in your portfolio, or somewhere on the web that allows hotlinking.

Use this icon to insert a hyperlink to a webpage, or picture link on the net. Copy and paste the addy in the pop up window, in the second pop up window you can give your link a title.

Use this icon to post a linkable image thumbnail in your forum posts. In the pop up window, put the image ID number in the box. First figure what picture you want to use, right click on that pic, and copy the ID number thats at the end of the address. Its a several digit number, put it in the thumbnail icon box, and it will post the thumbnail in your forum post.

Just to clarify, for inseting an image, you have to put the address of the image file. This means it must end in .jpg or .gif. If it ends in anything else the chances are it won't work. To get the image URL, right click the image, go to properties, and you'll see it there.

And here's the link to the Tutorial on Forum Code which is still pretty current except for the new THUMBNAIL button.
