Embed images (forum Q)

Is there a way to embed images hosted in say, our Windows skydrive account, in these posts so we don't eat up our allotted storage space?
Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick, yup it's possible to embed external images - but to do it you've got to write out the HTML for the image, which looks like this:

code:
<img src="http://blah.com/files/filename.jpg">

When you write that <img> tag, it will become an image in your post body at that spot and it will read in whatever address you put as the src="" attribute.

Cool. Thanks. So this forum does accept standard html tags. I just didn't see any of the usual helpers.
