Why is this so hard?

some pic hosting places block you from linking to them from other sites

try doing a test one from a pic on yahoo news

use this link
http://us.news2.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20041002/capt.wxs11710020442.mount_st_helens_wxs117.jpg

then click the image button when you reply to this post.. its on the top, 3rd one from the right

then put that url in

code in your message should end up looking like this

okay i just figured out whats wrong

make sure you right click your picture then click properties

use the url thats listed in there

dont use the url thats in your address bar in the top

Thanks for the help offroadaz it is really easy after you told me that

ok all I see is a box with a red x in it. what gives.
