    Yep [img][/img] those are the image brackets. All you have to do now is go and upload your image at an image hosting site.

    For example -

    Have your forum page set and ready where you see the image brackets [img][/img].

    Now open another new page and go to http://www.imageshack.us/ click browse, find your image you want hosted.

    Click on your image and click on - Open - then click - Host it.

    Wait for it to finish uploading.

    When it's finished scroll down the bottom.

    Click on the - Direct Link to Image - box and it will highlight it, then right click mouse on it and click Copy.

    Then on to your forum page, just click in between the image brackets [img][/img] right click and click Paste.

    Then you will see the URL of your image in between the image brackets.

    Now you preview it and post it and your done.

    Hope this help ya =)
