Make sure the link for the pic ends in " .jpeg" or ".pgm". Also, be warey of sites like bizjournal for example that have a bunch of "X's" in the url link. Those won't work given the embedding. You have to extract them and either convert them to a different format.
When posting photos, use the "insert image button
[IMG]
"(place link here)
[/IMG]
In between the two "IMG" tags, you place the image url. Just make sure to have the order of "/" correct if not using the image button.
I recommend using the advanced editor mode. That's all I use. Allows for more features.
The insert image pic is to the left of the quote symbol, and has a little display of a mountain image. A quick way of doing it is copy the image url using "control C", click insert image button, and press "control + V". It'll do it all in three steps and is quick.
In the case of imgur, just drag the pic from imgur into the desktop, and bam, you have a jpeg. Than just use the steps above.
Now for the case of images that are seriously impeded, sites that use protections, the ones where 99% can't extract it, there are tricks to get past that...
