Try this from the Help section:

To insert a picture in your post, select the “insert image” icon on top of the message box. This icon looks like a framed picture of a tree. Once you select this icon, you have the choice of attaching a file from your computer or entering the url (web address) for the image. Please note that the url must be for the image itself, not the whole website. You can usually get an image url by right-clicking on the picture and selecting “copy image address”.

When you add a picture using the url, there is an option below the uploader that reads “Retrieve remote file and reference locally.” This will save the image file to Quilting Board’s servers rather than link to another website. We recommend leaving this option on, so that the other website cannot change or delete your image

Hi mzzzquilts ,thanks for the reply. I think things have changed, I copied the picture IMG code on photobucket and just pasted it straight into post on the forum. I think it worked OK

Yep, that's the easiest way to do it from Photobucket. I usually only use the thumbnails so as to keep the pictures small.

Finally found some time to sit down and read some of the forum help posts. Can someone please tell me what the photo bucket is that is being referred to in this post. Thanks and Happy New Year

It's an image hosting website, where you can upload pictures and videos and share them. The website is: www.photobucket.com It's free, and safe, if you have the need for a place to upload pictures.
