You may have to upload the picture to a photo sharing site like Photobucket first. Then go to the place where the picture is (i.e Photobucket), click on it, and you should see a listing for email & IM, Direct, HTML and IMG . Click on either email & IM or IMG (that copies it) and then do a paste when you click on the " Insert Image" square. Ironrod - I sent you a PM to see if this works. Let me know please
Different sites will probably have a different procedure.
Thanks paual2748, clever way around a problem.
