Personally, I have had more luck copying and pasting from Facebook than uploading directly from my computer. But it has been quite awhile since I tried.

Ahh ok thought so. The web address where the photo is stored isn't working. Not sure if it's expired or moved or whatever but it's a FB thing rather than a website thing. The web address where the picture is stored is the FB photo storage. They'll probably still be on FB but not here. If you want them permanently here then best to upload directly from your computer to posts on this website.
I hope that's clear If not let me know.

Here, in this forum, I have found my sweet eternal love, my beautiful Phil.. :

"You are my sunshine", he used to sing to me... "you make me happy, when skies are grey" I still answer him.
Rest in Peace, my brave Batman and take care of your weggies from heaven, until we meet again.
This used to be a lot easier to do, and when inserting a pic, we had the option to upload directly vs. uploading from a URL. Last time I looked, a URL was the only option, which is why we started doing it from Facebook. I know some options have been presented by members for getting a URL for a picture. But it would be a lot easier to just upload directly from our computer files like we could before. (Unless it's been changed again, which I haven't checked....) With the avatar, it's always been possible throughout this time to upload from our computer. It would be nice to have that option with both.

Aaaannnd fixed. You should see an option to upload attachments from your computer now.

Awesome, Andrew. I haven't tried it yet, but just checked the "insert image" function and see that it is now an option, just like before! Thank you very much! Oh, what the heck, here is a pic of me selling my wares at the Olympia Farmers Market. If it works, that is, ha, ha.

Well, it turned out pretty small, but it is there. Oh, now I see it is a thumbnail and can be enlarged by clicking. Can there be any other options, like just showing it larger to begin with? One step at a time, I guess.
