With the old set-up and on most other forums, I can right-click any image on the internet and copy the properties (ctrl-c), then using the yellow mountain icon, I could ctrl-v and paste the url with the [img] thingies and the pic showed up. Now, I can't seem to do it. It comes up as a link. I can post an attachment using the above method or using a pic from my computer, but can't get the copy/paste worked out.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks. :balls1:

I just tried it and it work for me.
Some sites have hotlink protection.
That will not allow you to link their pictures to this site.

Well, it looks like I can do it from other sites, just not stuff that originates here on SCS. ?

That is hot link protection.
Posting images hosted here to other sites is a waste of site resources.
It is called stealing bandwidth in the computer world.
