So, no workarounds for this revolting Photobucket problem?
BK, I don't know if it works the same way on a MAC as it does a PC, but what I have always done is:
1. Right mouse click on the photo that is in Photobucket (or any photo on the internet, for that matter)
2. When the window pops up, choose properties
3. In the next window that pops up look for Address/URL.
4. Highlight the URL. Righ click on the highlighted URL and choose "copy"
5. Go to HHW, to the post you are writing (using reply, not quick reply) and paste in the URL.
6. Highlight the URL that you just pasted into you posting.
7. Then choose from the above listed "BBC Tags" the one that looks like tiny framed picture. This is called "insert picture," Click on it. It will automatically put and [img] tag at the beginning and end of the URL that you had pasted in.
8. Then continue with you post as normal and enjoy. You will have a lovely photo in your post.
DR MBarnum - The copying/pasting/linking problem that bk is encountering is a Photobucket-only problem (so far). Once you upload a photo to Photobucket, it automatically comes up with the "tags" for embedding, linking, or "blogging" the photo. It used to be an automatic Copy and Paste operation: you just clicked on the IMG link, and it copied the link with the BBC tags to your clipboard, then all you had to do was to Paste it (into your post). Something changed a couple of weeks ago, and that auto-copy feature no longer seems to work on Macs. -However, I'm still able to manually Copy and Paste the links on my computer.
Now if bk or any other DR would like to hyperlink to a picture on another website (Amazon, IMDB, NYTimes, etc.) then the instructions that you posted above will come in handy.
*For a Mac:
-Control-Click on the picture
-Select "Copy Image Address".
-In your post, select or manually type the IMG tags.
-Position cursor between tags
-Apple+V (to Paste the link)
