How to Include Images in Posts

We have limited space to store images on the site, but here's a way that gives you as much storage space as you could need.
  1. Set up a free account at Photobucket by clicking the link below:

  2. Choose your digital picture, or if necessary scan your paper document / photo / newspaper cutting, and save it as a JPEG image.
  3. Upload it to Photobucket. You'll see something like this page:
  4. Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

  5. Copy the "Tag" link (the middle one of the three) to the clipboard (using Edit-Copy on the menu, or Ctrl-C)
  6. Write your posting as normal.
  7. If you are using the "Kupu" editor (the default setup), you need to switch to the "HTML code" view by clicking the "View Source" icon: View Source Icon from Kupu wysiwyg editor
  8. Click the mouse where you want the image to appear and paste the link from the clipboard (using Edit-Paste on the menu, or Ctrl-V).  You can then return to the normal view by clicking the View Source Icon from Kupu wysiwyg editoricon again.  Resize the picture if necessary, and save the posting.
  9. And that's it. I promise you it takes much longer to describe it than to do it! Good luck.
