Click on the image until you can't click any more, then copy and paste the URL at the top. For instance,

[img]*http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/mikep ... /a-008.jpg*[/img]

you are missing the upload to internet step..
find an image hosting service..
follow the steps they provide to upload.

I'm going to use brickshelf as an example.

This is the example image.

Here is the image URL:
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/DYuha ... trod01.jpg

Copy the image URL and paste it between image tags:

To post your image, it needs to be from an internet source, i.e., an image host. And if you do that, for the love of all that lives, RESIZE YOUR PICTURES FIRST.

right click, "copy image location" puts the image location in your clipboard as well.
