Does anyone here know the image tags for posting pics hosted somewhere else? I can't find anything in the FAQs or General section.

Looks like:


It helps to keep the image less than 1000px wide, so as to not extend way out the right side of the screen.

When you are making a post, paste the link to the pic, highlight it and then hit the little formatting button that looks like a picture above the reply window.  It will place the tags on either side of the highlighted link.
