Get a free Photobucket account. Upload the image to it. Photobucket will provide 4 code formats. Copy the 3rd one down and paste it into your post.

Use angle brackets instead of the square ones.

Remove the spaces after the "<" and before the ">"

You can NOT do it directly from your computer. It has to be hosted or on a web site. Then it is:

<img src="http://my.url/my.jpg">

For example <img src="http://www.gii.in/wallpapers/data/media/524/Catherine-Zeta-Jones-25.JPG">

Results in:

Nully's Quick FR HTML Guide:

Basic formatting:

Line break <br>
Paragraph break <p>
<blockquote>

Indented paragraphs
</blockquote>
<u> underline </u>
<i> italics </i>
<b> bold </b>
<s> strikethrough </s>
<tt> typewriter text </tt>
<font color=red> Red font </font>
<blink> blink </blink> Use blink sparingly. People HATE blink

<font size=1>Smallest FR font</font> Displays as:
Smallest FR font

<font size=7>Largest FR font<font> Displays as:
Largest FR font

Or

Step font size up or down with <big>bigger</big>

and <small>smaller</small>

"Hidden" text: <font color=white> White font </font>
Drag cursor over blank area to highlight to read...

Tip: control the size with "height=nnn" like so:

First your photo must be hosted on a web site like Photobucket - it is free to open an account. You upload your photo to your account. Photobucket supplies the html code you will need to post to FR.

Since you have good answers already... I'll just snark. ;)

First.... you log in.

BTW, you are obligated to post your first jpeg here on this thread and ping everybody on the thread.

Oh, a couple of other points.
Post your jpeg between the quotation marks. And your jpeg must be a photo on the web, not your computer (open an account and post on Photobucket or Flicker, for example).

To put in angle brackets, use the HTML psuedo-variables &lt and &gt (use a semicolon after the &lt)

For example, <this is in angle brackets> is

&lt;this is in angle brackets&gt

Always wondered about that. Just have used spaces when explaining.
