The basic instructions would be to
first upload the photo to a free hosting site (photobucket is just one example),
and then copy the photo's URL or Image code from where the hosting site displays the photo,
and then paste the URL or Image code into the forum reply.

I made a post some time ago explaining the process. I will see if I can find it...

This is correct, use imgur, once the image is uploaded and select "large thumbnail", then copy the BB Code link into your post. Sometimes folks overcomplicate things that are very simply done.

I'm able to see your image once I click on it, but my hope is to figure out how to embed an image so it's just... there, with no clicking on hyperlinks.

You have the right image link, you just have to embed the link in [ img ] tags, the forum can do that for you, just follow these two steps:

Click the "image" button:



Then paste the image link you have in the text box that shows up, then click the "Insert" button.



That's it.

That's it.

I always see people saying to do it that way, but I never have. I just click on the image in imgur, select the size, copy the BBC link, and then just paste that directly into the post.

That works exactly the same, in that case Imgur is just pre-supplying the IMG tags around the link instead of having Bladeforums put them in for you. Mobile Imgur users don't get those fancy link options, though, so for mobile users they have to rely on BF's image insert.

Ahhh...ok. Haven't tried doing it from a phone. Am usually on a tablet or PC, and since going Gold haven't really had to use imgur.

Test

I try clicking on the image icon then pasting the flickr URL, but the image doesn’t appear. Am I doing something wrong? Is flickr not a good Option?
