Hey Frank,
No worries. As many times as I do it, I still need a refresher now and then. Give this page a read:
http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/ubbcode.html What you have to remember is, you need a working web server to host your pictures. I use a box I'm responsible for at work. You might use space made available to you by your ISP or maybe a friend.
If you want, I can host your pictures for you temporarily (let's say a week) on my work box. Send me the pictures and I'll send you the URL and you can go from there.
That offer is good for any member here. Just can't be too long (the powers that be will question the increased traffic).
