jwmchanging links to photos in a post?
I just posted a too-long hunt report and thought that I was posting photos with it, but all that came out were the links to the Photobucket account. I'm a computer illiterate...I thought that I followed the directions to a T, but I guess not.
Is there some simple way to alter the post so that the pictures themselves appear in the body of the post, rather than just the links? Thanks.

GeorgeSClick the icon in the lower right-hand corner; it looks like a pencil eraser superimposed on a folder.
That puts you in edit mode.

jwmWow, that was fast!
I know how to edit a post, I just don't know how to change the links into photos. This is my first time posting photos...or it will be, when I finally do post them.
Is this something I do in AR, or in Photobucket, or...?

GeorgeSYou add the [img] tag at the beginning of the full URL for your photo, and the [/img] at the end.
This way
