I know it's probably easy but I'm going insane trying to get the picture up without saving it to my computer and using very colourful language to boot. :grr:

I am computer illiterate so in simple layman terms would be much appreciated.

Find a pic of the book, on amazon or wherever. Get the url of the book (by right clicking on the picture and copying it), and then put url between [img] [ /img] (without the spaces) in the post you're making.

look for it on google or something, right click the image, copt the url which should be something like www.thisisapicture.com/image1.jpg, and then paste it on here with the code around it (without the stars)

Thank you both. :angel:

Unfortunately me and computers really don't get on and have spent the last 20 minutes swearing and frustrated. It all sounds so simple. God I hate being thick! :grr:

Like bollocks have I.

Computers are the work of Satan. Yes, I know it's easy but everytime I right click and copy I got to the thread and try to right click and paste, it doesn't give me the paste option.

Next time I'm colouring in a picture and posting it to individuals who are interested. :D

Alright. When you right click an iamge, such as your avatar, click properties. Then you should get something like this:

http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/5488/imgry7.jpg

the URL in the address bit...highlight that then press control + c on your keyboard. Once you've done that, find where you want to paste it and do control + v within the img brackets.

HOORAY! I LOVE YOU!

You can have a big kiss now. :D

I kept getting a red x in a box so I tried a different picture and it worked.

Thank you for your patience.

No worries. It is nice to do something on here than start irrelevant food polls and yell at people.
