I am having trouble getting an image to load within a thread, like "post your pictures", I am using Mozilla firefox and photobucket. Could I please get some how-to advice. thank you.

Try using the little 'tree' icon next to the smily. Use the direct link from photobucket. You may want to resize the image first.

 thank you Rat, it worked. btw you take great photos for us!!!

i shouldve read this thread before trying to post a photo...  uh - i have kinda a silly question tho - do we have to resize the image before creating the link/image ?  or can we just type some new numbers into the 'size' items of the link ?  and then, is there a way to edit the photo/message after it has been sent/posted ?  (ie - i just posted a photo - it was too large [1024x768] and now i want to try and correct it - help?)  thanx, h.

edit - i just went back and figured out how to edit my post and then i looked at the html-source button and typed in 400x300 instead of the default 1024x768 that it came in as...  thus, i guess ive answered my own question about the sizes (yes, fix it later - during the post process) and the how-to-post-images issues i had...  last comment - maybe something about posting pics could be put into the faq ?  h.
