How to post an al*** cover picture?

I thought it would be a simple copy and paste but it's not working for me.

Have you tried finding the cover pic, right clicking on iit, selecting properties then copying what it says and pasting it between two sets of brackets like this:
[pic]http//:www.whateveryou'relisteningtoprobablysomethingratheresotericandterriblyimpressive.com[/pic]
?
edit: Ok, it's not 'pic', it's IMG /IMG you'll need within each set of brackets.

a) surf the web and find the cover of the album you wish to post for all your fellow forumers to see;
b) right-clic on it and select "copy image location" or something similar (depends on your browser)
c) in the "reply" box, clic the "image url" button and paste (ctrl-v) your b) copied url
d) you're done! now just wait for people to be amazed by your knowledge in incredible music none has ever heard of
I could've done it with screenshots but I don't know how to post them lol just kidding

Here's what I do, the only way I know:
- find the album cover image on the web; I like to use Amazon.com
- copy the image location (this will be a URL). I use the browser Firefox on a Mac, so this is done by clicking and holding for a second on the image itself, then from the pop up menu I choose "Copy image location." In Safari you need to use the control key in combination with a mouse click, then choose "Copy link" from the pop up menu. Note that you do not choose "Save image" ... you want the image's location link.
- when you compose your post, click the icon/button that looks like an image of green mountains
- a little window will pop up with a field into which you paste that image location link, then click "OK." I ignore the alignment options and just leave as the default "none."
That's all there is to it!
Hope this helps,
Fred
