 This is probably the same as Crandell's "Reply", but recently all the photos that I have stored in my dedicated Layout Album, apprar as Thumbnails with just a small box to the left, below, and a rectangle with "http//:URL.173". I click the square and then click on the rectangle. The word,"Copied" appears momentarily. Otherwise, there will be four options below the small photo that you want to download from Photobucket. Click on the IMG one at the bottom,(and the word,"Copied" will appear, momentarily). Then return to the Trains.com/Forum, and either click to create a Thread. or click on Reply to  Post text and photos on someone elses Thread.  After typing in the desired Text I click on Enter to move the cursor to the next space. If you then click on "ctrlV", the lengthy photo code appears. I then click on Post , and the job is done! The Text and photo appear at the end of the desired Thread.  Bob H

Place your cursor over the thumb on your gallery page, scroll down and out the bottom of the thumb as a drop-down menu appears.  As your cursor gets to the bottom line ("img" tags), click and watch it turn blue, right click and copy.  Then return here and just paste it into a text box.

Later, when you are typing a message here and think to insert one of your images, just open a new web-page tab, find your account in your "favourites", and retrieve the img tag code the same way, close out the tab, and you will find yourself back here.
