    Is there a trick to inserting images into a post.
    When I click on the little icon for inserting images, I'm asked for an address. I'm assuming it's asking for a web address.
    How do you insert an image from your computer?
    If I say, "Upload a file", all I get is is the computer code.

    Go to the 'Migration' category. There's a 'how to use this site' thread there.

    OK, I'll give it a try

    Good Morning!

    Nope. This is what I get when I hit the upward embed arrow and choose a picture from my hard drive, and then click on the two little over lapping squares next to the X.
    If I hit the "groundhog.jpg", a new window open up that shows the photo.

    Ah, I see. I may have to preview it first. It works fine after you post. Before you actually post, the picture is just a bunch of computer code/
