Herman,

Putting in a URL will not preserve the pics on our site because they are still vulnerable to being moved--making the URL useless--or the demise of that other site.

Here's how I would do it: When you have the pic displayed on your screen, right-click on it to bring up a dialog box. One of the choices in the box will be "Save image as", so click that. This will pop up a window that lets you choose what folder on your computer it will be filed in. You may store it in any folder listed on the file system tree, or create a new folder and name it anything you wish. Just keep track of where you file the pic, and you'll be able to find it later, when you're uploading via the "browse" option on our site's "manage attachments".

I'm PC, but this will probably work for Mac, too. I don't know if you'll need a Mac guy to translate the specifics, so to speak. But this is the easiest way to get the pics onto your hard drive for transfer to a post or gallery here.
