If you want to include a picture in a post, and that picture is not already hosted elsewhere on the Internet, do the following:
Upload your picture into your member gallery or a particular album
Once it has been uploaded you have two options to consider:
Use the thumbnail of the picture in your post
Use the full-size version of the picture in your post
Whichever option you choose simply CTRL-click over the image of choice and select Copy Image Location (Mozilla), Open Image in New Window/Tab (Safari), Properties (Internet Explorer) and copy the resulting URL for the picture.
Next, go to the post where you want to insert the image.
Click on the button when editing your post, paste the URL into the box provided, and click OK.
Your image should now appear in your post.
If for some reason you do not see your image:
Check the URL of the image to make sure it is correct.
To change the image in your post simply edit the post, highlight the area of the image, and click the button to make changes to the URL displayed.

How about from an IPad? Every time I try to upload pix into my gallery it's not even an option. Upload buttons appear screened back and can't select them, so can't upload from IPad.
Hey Coop,
I use an iPad. I use photobucket. I put photos from my library first, then upload them to bucket. From bucket you use the direct link to upload them in the gallery. Hope it helps.
