I tried to PM you, but it seems that you don't accept PMs. If you turn that feature on in your personal settings, I can continue explaining there, otherwise...
Those are ISP (Internet Service Providers) and you may or may not have disk space on their servers. There may even be an opportunity to store your images on BroadwayWorld's servers, but I have never done it that way, so I don't know. (If anyone knows, please chime in.)
So, if you have a personal website, or have an arrangement with your ISP to have personal disk space, its easy. If you don't, you'll need to arrange with someone to either rent or use their space. (I have server space, so you may contact me, if you'd like.)
Once you have server space (you might even have some with Apple), you have to upload your image to that server. For the Mac there are several programs that will allow you to do this. If you don't have reason to invest in an "editor" like Dreamweaver, you can use a far more simple product like, Fetch. There may even be a free version.
Using your FTP - or other protocol - program (Fetch), you logon to your server and upload the image to that server. I recommend putting the image in a directory (folder) that you label, "BroadwayWorld", or perhaps "ForumImages" - you choose.
So, now you have your image uploaded and therefore on the Internet. The HTML code you use is repeated here:
<img src="[ADDRESS AND NAME OF IMAGE]">
You don't actually type the "[" and "]"...

In trying to create this, I just learned that it will automatically add the HTML tag. Just put the full address in your message window and it will do the rest.
Clear yet, or more questions?
ARTc3 formerly ARTc. Actually been a poster since 2004. My name isn't Art. Drop the "3" and say the signature and you'll understand.
Very simple: Have whatever image you want on your desktop> go to imgur.com> drag the image from your desktop onto your browser window showing imgur.com until the window becomes gray and the word "upload" appears> release the image> click "upload"> Copy the link from "Direct Link (email & IM)"> paste in either the "Optional Image" box OR just anywhere inside the "Message" box.
And yet all of this sounds far more complicated then it need be. There are a gazillion apps and websites out there were adding a photo is a simple as copy/paste. (Granted, I'm not the best with computers and HTML and all that crap, so what the hell do I know?)
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert
The only thing I notice and sometimes get caught out is it doesn't support other file types (e.g. png).
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
