you can put a .gif, or .jpg into a post by using the img tag

(img src=“[www.theURLtoYourPicture.com](http://www.theURLtoYourPicture.com)” height=40 width=40)

or a .SWF by using the embed tag

(embed src=“[www.theURLtoYourPicture.com](http://www.theURLtoYourPicture.com)” height=90 width=90)(/embed)

just change the ( and ) to \< and \> and make sure that you upload the image onto your server.

oops… no I was using ezcode method which will do the image no matter what you put between it… I forgot.

{image}yourImageUrlHere{/image}

but using the square brackets instead of the curly ones.
