Hi I often see posts that include an image of Audacity to demonstrate what it is you want a reader to edit. How do you put these images into a post not sure how to do it. Any help much appreciated.

Do you have a means already of capturing the image? If that's the case, you want to know how to place it in a post, presumably with the <img> code (or something like it.) Is that right?

When typing an entry, you should have buttons above that allow you to bold a word or phrase, or place it in quotes, etc. There is a button, ninth from the left, that is for images. Give that a try, perhaps.

I should say, I've never used it, but you'll probably have to post the image on the Web somewhere to get the Web address. That would be the hard part for me.

What I commonly do is put the image on my Google My Drive and just link people to it. It's easier for me.

I'm sorry I can't be of more help, but I'm sure someone will come along who knows far more than do I.

Until then, find a post with an image and hit the 'quote' button to the far right. You'll see the code then that allows the image to show. Maybe that will give you an idea of what is needed.

Hi Kevin I did what you said and found someone elses post where they have embedded an image. I have finally got this to work. Thank you for your advice.
This is what I was trying to post. :9:
