How do I post an image?

Hi, maybe I'm being a bit thick but I can't work out how to include an image in this posting. I can see the 'image' button but that just posts a tag into the message. Presumably I need to upload the image somehow.

I think I've found the answer in the FAQ. The Internet is running like a pig this morning -- it took nearly 10 mins to access the FAQ pages! Yuk!

Hi Mike,
Sorry I didn't see this post sooner, but it looks like you have it figured out now.
Before you can include your picture, it must already exist somewhere on the Internet and have its own URL (Internet address).
So if the address of your image is: -
www.theframers.co.uk/images/yourpicture.jpg
You just encase it within the [img][/img] tags thus: -
[img]
www.theframers.co.uk/images/yourpicture.jpg[/img]
and it will be displayed on screen within your message.

Many thanks. I did find the answer in the FAQ but didn't look there initially as I just assumed there would be a way of uploading images directly to the forum (as is the case with other forums I use).
However, I can see the sense of the way you do it as it does stop your server filling up with unwanted images.
