Use the Direct Link. I think some of the others are thumbnails. If the link in the post reads TIMG edit out the T and it should change to full size. Be sure to get the one at the end, too. The T is for thumbnail and the IMG is for image.

By the way, Don't post in all caps unless you have to because of a vision issue, and if you do, let us know in a sig. On-line it's considered yelling.

Edit: In my opinion, Image Shack is more reliable than Photo Bucket. I do a lot of photography and the people in my photo forums who use PB always seem to have issues. I have a tutorial on photo posting using Image Shack and Flickr but I need to tweak it for this forum interface. It's geared for semi-pro photographers. I'll see if I can get to that next week and put it in Tips and Tricks or something like that.

When you click on links on your photo, scroll down to the very bottom where it shows IMG codes. Simply click on the link below it. It will start with [url=http. Come back here, right click in your post, then click paste. It should work fine. Sometimes, I'll have to click "enter" before the box with the paste option will show up. Sometimes not. Let us know if you get it to work for you.
