now if you wish to place the image within your post rather than an attachment at the bottom.

go to the ''paperclip'' / manage attachments / & click on the uploaded image, this should then be visible in your thread.

like so...

I have been wondering how to do this for so long now!
Thank you very much.

I've got another negative for 3rd Parties. Don't they all have bandwidth limits. Cause some 3rd Party shots I've seen have either been: Moved/Deleted/Exceeded Bandwidth,

Thanks,

Yes, that is true - hence why some boards also block linking to third party galleries in the first place - it means their server software is having to fetch those links every time someone views the post. Another problem also arising from externally linked files is that it can slow down responses here as well, if the end user has to wait for the third party to finishing sending all the data.
