After you start an account upload the pic to their database and cut and paste the image code tag to the post.

Check PMs.

Also if you need to resize a picture this is free and works great. IrfanView - Official Homepage - one of the most popular viewers worldwide

Just put [IMG] tags around the URL to your image

Like so:
[code][noparse][ATTACH=full]57174[/ATTACH][/noparse][/code]

which gets you this:
[ATTACH=full]57175[/ATTACH]

You didn't paste a link to anything. That's why nothing showed up. The tag usage is fine there.

I was showing an example... I got it figured out... I was editing and re-editing the post... my first attempt was wrong and the url was converted to a link... the addition of the img tags didn't "unconvert" it... final format was right, but the content was wrong... thanks for the help.

No problem. Glad you got it figured out.
