Almost, Jarrell.
For embedding; copy the "pic URL", starting with http and ending with.jpg as shown when you right click on the pic and click on "properties". You will have to "select (highlight) the URL in the properties box (not the page URL in the adddress box), then copy/paste etc.
Keep shootin'

Does this do it?:
...apparently so. I went to the picture, then performed the MAGIC STEP, then pasted the magic reference here.
The MAGIC STEP is this: Open that image in a NEW WINDOW. A blank page with just the intended shot will appear. Above it is the unique address for the shot excluding all reference to the ofoto page. Copy THAT address and paste it in a message to produce the imbedded image.
I hope it works for real. It showed up just fine in Preview...

nope i believe ofoto is like geocities etc, they dont allow external links to pics like this, generally they do this so you dont just use it as an image storage without seeing the ad's

Hmm. On my browser, the image shows up just like a normal imbedded shot. Does your browser NOT let you see the shot below? The only one I've left in this message is the one I put there from Jarrell's reference using the magic method.

No Peter, sorry. No photo. I think Charlie is on to something.

I think like this. I believe you need the semicolon (
at the end of your link.

Back when I used Photopoint, all you had to do was right click on the image, choose "copy shortcut", and paste it in the message here, whereupon it would automatically open when the message itself was clicked on. I haven't been able to do this since leaving them. Maybe, like Charlie says, the others just don't allow it.

The trick is to open the photo in a new separate window, then it imbeds hopefully like this.

There, that did it.

its a common technique amongst these kinds of websites, they check the referrer and/or have cookies.
Often if you've logged in or have your own account and a "cookie" then you can see them, which causes a lot of perplexed looks on the posters side. Or if the image is cached, but generally you still have to have actually gone to the site through normal means.
I'll bet peter logged into the site, opened up the page via opohto or cut and paste, if it was cut n paste then they are disallowing referrers,if it was another method its cookies.
a semicolon at the end is phils way of stopping the image inlining soyou hae to click to see it.
for instance i cut n paste peters version of the link into a new instance of the browser, saw the picture, then copied this link, did a preview of this post and the picture appears, but it probably won't appear for anyone whos not opened it up as a virgin instance.

Peter iNova put me on to this:
You can embed images only when they are stored where directly accessed by a URL. I put these on my local USP server. HTH. PatiO.
PS: Please let me know if the image doesn't show up. I don't know if there is any 'protection' on the site or not.

In addition to directly linking to a specific .jpg stored on a server that allows direct linking, I believe you also need to be a registered user on the forums.
Jarrell appears not to be registered, and perhaps that's one reason his pix are not imbedded.

PatiO, yours came up just fine. But, I've tried all methods suggested so far to no avail. Thanks to everyone just the same.

Gee, I thought I was. I've been posting here since last Dec or Jan. Did I overlook that........? I recently changed isp's. Would that effect my not showing as registered. Oh well, I'll register again.

I had the same problems with Ofoto and started using pbase.com
This is a test from both services.

Well it looks like both services work ok. The problem I had with Ofoto is now fixed. One more from Ofoto.
