Question Attachment vs. Insert Image Question ??

Hi All,

When posting pics, i have always just used the "attachments" feature, downloaded a JPEG from my PC, and it attaches them at the end of the text. All good.

I am working on a Sirius Radio info piece/DIY and would like to insert pics in to my text narrative as it progresses and where it is pertinent to the text.

Do you have to use the "insert image" feature in order to do this? It seems so to me, but you then have to use an image host (and a link to the respective pic) and can't insert a pic directly from your PC.

Any tips on how to insert images (short of having to post links via image host to the pics.) as i write the narrative?

Thanks, Greg

You can upload all of your pictures to photobucket.com, its free and once you upload a picture you can use the IMG code and insert it and it will work.

Thanks ! I have the photos i need over on Photo Bucket, so just use the image code and pic shows up versus a link to the pic?

Thx Greg

10-4. I had no idea, but after lurking around the User CP a bit I see what you mean. Thanks John.
