Any photo that is on a website can be included in a forum post. Here's how:

  2. Now, In the desired place within your forum post, type this line of code:
    <img src="Paste the address between the quotation marks">

  3. Be sure the the "Disable HTML" checkbox at the bottom of the Reply window is UNchecked

  4. OPTIONAL: If the photo is wider than 640 pixels, you should specify a maximum width of 640 by adding width=640 just before the >

  5. For example, typing this:
    <img src="http://www.vision-riders.com/images/vr_logo.gif">
