Harry,

You're getting warmer. Two things:
1) You need to get the URL of the full image and not just the thumbnail. E.g. when images are stored in your album, more than one copy is there. The "thumbnail" is the one you click on to get to a larger image. The larger image has it's own url. The url for your larger image is

http://www.c-brats.com/albums/album1692
/DSCN2405.jpg

2) You need the url for the image to be surrounded by the codes:
Code: 
  [img]YourImage'sURLHere[/img]

One way to get that code is to type it in. Another way is to hit the Img button when posting, paste in the url and hit close tags (which it what I did to paste your pretty sunset image below).

Well, that didn't go very well. I'll try again.

I'll have to print out the instructions to read while I'm doing this. Not quick enough in the brain or with the fingers.
 
Ahaaaaaaaaa!

And here's the real answer from the C-Brat nerd himself:
I've been watching the various posts throughout the years, from helpful C-Brats trying to explain how to include pictures in posts. It's great that everyone has helped out in this area, but quite frankly, I cringe every time I see another set of instructions. Reason being...with a couple of simple nerd tips and a non-brain-dead browser, it is sooooo dang easy.

So, without further ado, here's the ultimate nerd method. Works on Windows, Linux and Mac.

Pre-Requisites

1. If you have yet to become enlightened, Get Firefox

2. Click here, and install the BBCodeXtra Extension. You'll need to restart your browser.

Note: This extension is a huge benefit, when using sites that utilize BBCode. We'll use one small part of it to demonstrate how easy including pictures in posts can be.

Procedure

1. Find a picture online, somewhere. Typically, it's an image in one of our albums, but it can be virtually any picture online. Hover your mouse, directly over the picture. Right-click, then select "Copy Image Location"





2. In the edit window of a new post, position your cursor where you want the picture to be located. Then once again, Right Click your mouse, and select "bbcodeXtra --> Clipboard --> Image"





3. There is no step 3. Mr. Green

After doing the above, the proper BBCode will be in the edit window, and will look similar to the following. Finish editing, click Preview until you like the results, then post!
