Your link has to start with the http:// not with the http://linkhere[ / I M G] directly.

Also, if you are using photobucket copy the URL in the Direct Link box and then paste it after you click the Insert Image button here in soompi post settings. Or copy the URL from the IMG Code box and paste it directly to your post.

Hi, i tried to post a picture using the "insert image" button, but it said "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this board. A valid format is: http://www.domain.com/picture.gif, an invalid format is: http://www.domain.com/picture.one.gif"

so, I tried looking for pictures that had that format with .gif at the end, but I coudn't find any. If I wanted to post the picture with the URL http://www.flickr.com/photos/tina-dinh/3998861863, how would I do that? Thanks.

^ If you want to post a picture in your post then you don't necessary have to have a gif file. Any picture file will do (as far as I know). The link you posted from flickr doesn't work if you just have the link that way though. You need to have a link that ends with .jpg or .png for example.

Go to your link with the Jaebeom picture and right click on the picture. Click on properties and copy the url. Put the url between these tags: (IMG) and (/IMG) and the picture should show up. -Change ( ) to [ ]-

For example:

(img) your url (/img)
