Posting images/weblinks

Quick question to those who are more PC savvy than me, not difficult admittedly

1) Have a picture want to post on the forum, saw the button above but only gives instructions for a web page image, how do I post one from my C drive

2) Some of you when putting a web link on to a post, shorten it to a title, such as BBC and can click that, rather than having www.bbc.co.uk ie the link showing, how do you do that please??

Advise much appreciated [?]

If you have a look in the forum faq's here it explains about adding a hyperlink in.

As for the photo, I believe you either need to host it on a site like photobucket, or upload the photo to V-Flyer and then insert it in to your post, you can't just link to it from your hard drive, but others will be able to confirm that.

From the banner above the forum, Photo Gallery, then scroll down until you see 'upload a photo'. Remember to note the restrictions on size and format.
