    Here is a video on how to embed a picture directly in your post using a photo posting site such as Picasa, Flickr or Photo Bucket. All these sites are free.

    There are several advantages to embedding a photo in your post (compared with attaching a photo):
    1. you don’t have to scroll back and forth between the posts and the photos.
    2. the photos tend to be larger.
    3. you can add text or explanations more easily below the photo.

    Hi George, Well, it has Taken me two tries so far but that is still pretty cool. My picasa page didn’y have copy url, but it had copy image location. That seems to work. Now I just hit “apply Image” ? we will see.

    Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks! Thanks George, That is great. D

    George, That is a good explanation! To add, the same way George describes you can post photo’s from your own website (or others), weblog, add’s, etc, as long as “copy URL” is allowed.

    For example I picked up the add from the top right of this page, by right clicking on it:

    Very interesting to use when you see things or photos on the internet which might interest this community!
