Clarity is needed - you can't just snag a favorite picture from a desktop folder...it has to be hosted someplace to be transferrable to our posts. ~ ErnBatavia

Thanks to BykrBayb for a tip on using < instead of showing < with a space that needed to be removed and the blockquote command...

Right click on image then save image as (whatever). To post an image it has to sit on a server first . Flickr.com is a good place to upload them. Once you have a location of the image you post it like this

<img src="http://www.your_image_location.com" >
