HTH!
RIGHT CLICK ON THE PHOTO
PICK COPY IMAGE LOCATION
Here at the MB, make your post, then click on the MOUNTAIN BOX (Fourth from the right top row of icons)
PASTE that location there.
Click OK

For IE, just do the copy and paste. At least that works for me.

I use Firefox at home and IE here and I do the same thing both places.
If you are coming from Photobucket...paste in the "DIRECT LINK" path.

Sometimes it just depends... I use IE and most of the time can copy/paste directly but sometimes I'll just get a red x.

Yes I kept getting red x's too!

Yeah, that's why I posted the instructions. Copy/paste doesn't seem very reliable.

Did you get it to work using the instructions or did you mean just straight copy and paste?

Ok...I think I got it. I usually get everything from PB. But if you go from the gallery or the store...
1) Right Click on the image, select COPY
2) Go to your message box and click on the "Paste" icon (It looks like a clipboard with a picture in front...farthest on the left)
***If you just right click and select Paste in the msg, you get the red x***
ETA - This is for IE only.
