do that and then paste it here in a message box. Then preview it. If it works, fine. If not, you'll have to do a screen capture, save it and then upload to a web photo storage site.

See the instructions the other poster referenced.

The image must be uploaded someplace else, and the URL posted here.

First save pic. Choose Images on post image
Then hit photo album. Pick pics hit done.
When 100% complete choose item line direct link twice. Says copied. Then do to DU and post in text. Hit preview. Should be there.
