Under each image in your photobucket account are some code tags. Select and copy the IMG code and then paste it into your post.

I just tryd that, and the only thing I got was the actual url link to the photo, instead of the actual photo.... I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed I guess......

explain it to me please as if I were five...... or better, like I was a man

( my wife said I should write that)

Practice time!

In your photobucket album, hover your cursor over the image.
Underneath the image you will see four code tags:

Email & IM
Direct Link
HTML code
IMG code

Left click on the IMG Code and it will highlight in blue.
Right click and select copy

Return to your post and in the reply box:
Right click and select paste.

Viola! Your image is now embedded in your post thusly:

It also doesn't work in every forum. If you're in a forum and it's not working, scroll to the bottom and check the "Posting Rules" box. If it's turned off, it'll read [ IMG] code is Off

I also had a child infestation of my tank 25 years ago, wife decided the children took up so much time the tank had to go! On the positive side, they are now grown and the tank is back!!!

hahaha

Yeah, that's why it's taking me so long to get this thing up and running...... in the picture is my youngest son, and he insist on "helping" me whenever I start working on my tank/stand or whatnot.... you can imagine the "help" I get from him....

still, thanks for all your help

where else do you put them......

That is my youngest son (3 years old), and that is my diy stand he's sitting in..... he said it makes a cool hiding place.....

It is a great hobby for kids; a tank provides very good practical biology and chemistry lessons. My youngest daughter ended up working at the Birch Aquarium (Scripps) while at college (UCSD) as an aquarist. Alas, she went terrestrial on me and now cares for Cheetahs and Tigers at a Zoo in Oregon. Good luck with the tank and especially with the kids!
