They need to be hosted on the web somewhere then copy thier net address and use the image tab in the message writing screen.

I personally use www.photobucket.com to host all my pictures. Tho there are may others. I think www.flickr.com is also quite popular.

foxy,
To put pics on some websites the URL of the image hosted on some sites like Flickr can be too long.
You can use TinyURL to make it smaller.
Check it out here.
Also ensure that the http:// part of the address is only at the start once, as when you click the web button on here it automatically includes it and often the URL you are posting also has it.

Those URL's are to the page, not the image:



The address for this image is:
