I looking for a way to put pictures on message boards that I post to. I've stored the photos in a Yahoo Photos album and copied the link to the image link on the message board but along it spits out when posted is a hyperlink to the picture. Others have posted and their pictures show up as the would in an image viewer or as part of a website. I was wondering what I'm doing wrong. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated. Thanks

You need to see the board's instructions for how to tell it the image from the link is to be displayed, not just show the link as text. usually you have to surround the link text with tags like
[link]
www.blah.com/mypix
[/link]

but you need to see what tag the board uses for this.
