first find yourself an image hosting service. I'm currently using imgbb.com but there are loads of other free ones.

then upload your image there and put the url you get in between the [ img ][ /img ] (minus the spaces) tags you get when you press the "image" icon in the "create post" header

Much as stated already, you can also paste your image URL into your text - as below:

then select/highlight that URL text and click the image icon Image - which will surround the image url with the [ img ] tags - like below:

the image link to embed is https://i.ibb.co/cv1xmHj/sodaliao-Mongo ... 61b5d5.png

BUT that's a HUGE image -- loads of white space that you could trim and/or use their "BBCode embed" for a thumbnail or smaller version e.g.

Code: Select all
