I've never used the function, but I think it's there. If you look just under the Reply>Post box, under "Instant UBB Code" the first-row-third-column entry is "Image." Don't know if it works or not.
This is the text it gives when I click on it:
[image]http://[/image]
and it asks you to "Enter the complete URL for the image you wish to display."
Display with it for a little while and let's see what shows up!

The spider is the Golden Orb Weaver. I posted a link to an image of it in relation to a question I had about the meaning of its Latin name "Nephila clavata".
The reason for this thread is that I want to know if it is possible to post images directly into the forum without having to supply a link to an image host.

How do I add an image to my message? In order to add an image to your message or your signature, you must have the image already available on a web server. This can be an image on your own personal web page, for example. To place an image within a message, simply use the following Markup Tag: [image]http://www.url_to_image.com/image_name.gif[/image] For example, if you have an image called cateye.gif and its available from your own website at http://www.mywebsite.com/pics, then you would use the following image markup: [image]http://www.mywebsite.com/pics/cateye.gif[/image] You can do the same for your signature. Click the option found on any page. Then, under the Main Configuration heading, click on "Personal Information, email, password...". Look for the Signature box, and enter your desired information, including any images/markup as above. Note: To keep the forums loading quickly for everyone, it is recommended that you do not exceed 35k for your image size.

So, in fact, a 235Mb image will load as well as a 35Kb image? Hmmm
