It matters a lot where the pic resides.

It needs to reside on a site that allows hot-linking.

Then,

IMG SRC=”URL”

between left and right carets will work.

This is less specific than it needs to be. One can present such instructions to others by:
  1. First typing in the actual, unadulterated html code into your post, then, before posting
  2. replacing each < character with the four character sequence &lt;.
By replacing the left-carets this way with ampersand, lower case letter L, lower letter T and semi-colon, you force the html code to display as is, rather than by its usual interpretation. The "lt" stands for "less than".

So, to present:

<img src=http://www.fsl.orst.edu/sdmg/images/world_cow.jpg>
type into your FR post:
&lt;img src=http://www.fsl.orst.edu/sdmg/images/world_cow.jpg>
If you want to get fancy, you can replace the right carets with &gt; (the "gt" stands for greater-than) as well, and add bold and font and big text attributes to get different parts of the html code to stand out to the reader.
