Is there some way to upload images directly into this forum. I've been uploading them into Wikimedia and then referencing them.

This example is given
img=/welcome.jpg

Where is that image of the Welcome sign stored?

I upload mine into my live.com account and reference them from there. It works pretty well.

The /welcome.jpg refers to a folder on the website itself which I believe only the administrator has access to.

The url for that picture is https://wizardofvegas.com/welcome.jpg.

thank you. That seemed to work, but the image vanished after a few minutes. I must have a security setting wrong. I am using Google (not Live).

I used flickr.com, a photo storage outfit, and it worked to my surprise.

note that it needs to be a url and is not the usual upload from your own C drive.

Google Sites or Picasa? (Or is there some other skunkworks project that Google has?)
