well first of all you need a host for your images / videos

image shack is a good reliable FREE host for images

http://imageshack.us/

just browse from that site onto your PC to the image u want to host, click host it and it will upload to there server

then it will give you a list of links

i always use the last one in the list, direct link to image

then on these forums and many others you can use image tags

open the tag by typing [img ]

then you copy the direct link from image shack

for example -

http://img67.imageshack.us/img67/2470/img62353ys.jpg

then you close the image tag by typing [/img ]

Note- dont leave a space between g and the ] like i have, i did that so that you can see what to type
