Oookay, but what's the relevance to I.E.?
the fact that this is on the fractal softworks forum and that i am trying to understand how to use it, as it is a pretty special and different website than pretty much everything else

well that ain't no image



well in this case i honestly have no idea what is going on or what i am doing wrong. same link yet for you it shows it but for my post there is nothing, at least from what i see...oh well.

It's the IMG tag around the URL. Still, this is really off-topic.

Like this, but remove the space between "[" and "img".

If you are not sure how someone formatted something, you can click the Insert Quote button to put their post with formatting in the reply box.

Just going to chime in and say that, while this might have been off-topic, I found the thread very helpful. I didn't know how to post images either.
