Don't know about photobucket, but basically you just need to put the picture up on a website- either your own space or a site that allows "hot-linking"; and then click on the "Img" button, type or paste the web address (starting with the http bit) followed by clicking on the "Img*" button.
A confusion sometimes arises because the picture file needs to be a .bmp for the Go, but you can only show .jpg (and I think .gif) formats on the forum |

| We cross-posted, but I still get a "page not found" when I click on that link. |

All you need to do is right click the image and save as bmp image.

I fixed the original post, you need to use the [img] and [/img] tags around the direct link to the image file. You were linking to the Photobucket page containing your image rather than the image itself.
