If you want to post a pic that you've found on the internet, like an album cover for instance, right click on the picture and then select Properties.

A gray colored info box will appear and in it will be a string of URLcode usually ending in .jpg or .jpeg.

Point your cursor to the beginning or the end of the line of code, hold down the left button and drag the cursor across the entire line of code in order to highlight it. When it has all been given a blue highlighting it's ready to be transferred into an Org posting box.

Press ctrl and C at the same time and this will capture the highlighted line of code.

Open up a posting box in the thread you'd like to post in.

Point your cursor in the message box and left click once. You will see your blinking vertical line.

Now you can either simultaneously press ctrl V or go up to Edit in your browser navigation toolbar and click Paste in the dropdown menu.

The line of code will now be in your window.

Highlight the line of code. Just above the message window is a horizontal selection of menu choices. Click the one that says Img.

This will de-highlight (is that a word?) the line of code and encase it in brackets at each end that look like this: [img].

Click Preview Post.

You should see your picture. If you don't it means you either did something wrong or this particualar code is incompatible with the Org's platform. It happens sometimes that a pic will just not work and shows up as a red x in a box instead of a picture.

It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.
