To embed an image:
Right click on the attached image in question and "Copy image URL"
Go to the post with the URL in the clipboard, place the cursor to where you wish the image placed
Click on the "Insert Image" radio button directly above each post, when you open it "paste" the image URL into the popup
the result should look something like [ IMG]http://www.imagesource.com/image.jpg[/ IMG] (without the spaces in the IMG tag boxes)
Finally go to "Attachments and other options" below and uncheck the photos you have linked to, they will no longer appear below the post as before but the new "Inserted" photo will remain.
when you save your post, you should be able to see the image

Steve, no matter what computer, tablet or phone you use there is a Copy/paste keystroke or mouse move.
Macbook Pro
Command-C: Copy the selected item to the Clipboard. This also works for files in the Finder.
Command-V: Paste the contents of the Clipboard into the current document or app.
This also works for files in the Finder.

Then "modify" the same post.
Then click on the tiny pair of binoculars Under the "B" above the post
which will insert this
img /img in square brackets
Then in between the brackets paste your copied url it must have the the complete www.princegeorgevintagemcclub.org......... address
http://www.princegeorgevintagemcclub.org/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3137.0;attach=3168;image
so that it looks like this
(http://www.princegeorgevintagemcclub.org/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3137.0;attach=3168;image)
When this is done save it then go back to "attachments and other option" and uncheck the photo.

Once you have done it a couple of times it becomes pretty easy, its just remembering the right steps.
