How do I post an Image (Not as an Attachment)

[UrbanVanguard]

Hi, I’m new around here and I was wondering how you post images. I understand how to normally but whenever I do it, it appears as an attachment. I have seen in other peoples galleries that they have the image as an attachment and just as a viewable image. How do I do that? Thanks and sorry for being a noob.

Don’t worry about being a “noob”, everyone’s got to start somewhere.

Ok, to post an image into a reply you need to have a hyperlink to the image and paste it into the Insert Image box (which is the last button at the top of the reply box, the one that looks like a clip art mountain). To get the hyperlink you either need to have the image hosted on another website or have it already hosted on here as an attachment. Then open the image in a new tab and copy that url.

Hope that helps.

OK thanks. So if I had my images on say DeviantArt then I could link them from there?
