Clcik on the Album link above, select the correct album (The Motley Crew is for pics of yourself and your dogs etc) and then click on the Upload Pic icon (top left) and follow the instructions.

For links, a simple copy and paste into a message of whatever URL you want will do it

Also if you want to post the image instead of putting it in the albums, you will have to host it. Use www.photobucket.com or www.imageshack.com and many others.
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.

uploading into the album is having it "hosted" by KW, and therefore can be linked from the album. ;)

It's not how much we know, it's how much we learn that's important. ;)

This is a very important question, and I appreciate Julie asking it and the answers given here. I'm still having trouble posting pictures from Elohimfest '14, and hope this thread solves the problem!

Just note guys, as far as I know the current version of board software (that we're using) doesn't allow direct links from the album anymore.

To have it show up in a post, you have to upload it like WarMark (whatever the hell happened to WarMark?) said to an image host.

(I stand to be corrected?)

As far as I know, you're correct, Av. I've been unable to img tag a picture in the Watch album for a very long time. That's why I have my photobucket.

Has to do with the album permissions I think...albums are "private" and can only be seen by members, so you can't link to them.

Use image shack or create an account on photobucket, Hurn.
