Post (Not so) picture perfect.....
Hi, Patrick - how are you? I've been trying to insert images with the Img button on the forum. In so doing, I see the following:

{img}{/img}

I've tried to copy my image and paste it between the {img}{/img}, but no image shows up when I preview my post. I'd be very grateful if there's any way to post images without having to sign up for imgur, ImageShack, or other sites. Given the recent DDOS attacks that struck calcudoku.org, I don't want to put your email account/website(s) at risk by sending you a message. Thank you very much in advance for your time and patience regarding my difficulty and have a great day.

If all worked ok, there should be square brackets [ ] around the 'img'.

Also, in between there should be a link to the image.

On "imgur" you don't have to sign up:
- go to https://imgur.com/
- click on "New Post"
- upload the image from your computer
- click on the ". . ." menu at the top right of the uploaded image
- click on "Get share links"
- click on "Copy Link" next to the 3rd item ("BBCode (Forums)")
- paste this text into your forum post (using "Ctrl + V", or Edit -> Paste for example)

Note that the 'img' tags are already in there, so no need to click on the "Img" button here.
