Posting images changed?

Are we no longer using Coppermine for forum images?  When I went to my files and did the normal routine for posting an image what showed up was a link and not a picture.  Like this:



Note:  It only needed the IMG tags added for it to render properly and I took care of those for you.  -Pam

Are you sure you posted it as an image and not a hyperlink?

Nope, not sure.  What I did was bring up my desired picture and right click on it which brought up a menu that had:

View Image
Copy Image
Copy Image Location
etc..........

As I always did before I selected Copy Image Location.  When others quote my post the image shows up as an image but when I post, and preview, (( always preview first just in case I chose the wrong image), what I get is a link.   Looking at Seabody's post I see his "link" has [img] in front of the "link" and after it and mine does not.  Why does mine not have that?  I really don't want to just post links but the images, especially when I'm writing a story or doing something with builds.

Do either of you know why I'm not getting the image?  Is there something I may need to do in Coppermine?  I use Windows 7 and connect with Firefox in case there might be something there.

When I type up my post I use the image button  (underneath the B).

Edited because my other instruction wasn't clear.

Thanks, Marian.  Never had to do that before you know.  You just clicked on the Copy Image Location and voila you got a picture.

Testing using image button:



HAH!  It worked!  Thanks ever so much.

You've always had to use the IMG tags with the Gallery. Only photobucket has the IMG tags added in as an option to copy. It would be cool if the gallery had the tags built in though, I often forget then until previewing.

Thanks, Tom.  Probably was just an elder moment.
