OK, I feel really stupid but I just can't manage to insert images to my posts. I click the "Insert Image" button and paste the image URL from my RFF Gallery, but all I get is a broken icon. And no image in the post.

Hi rover, I've tried various forums with other images, for example w/nw. :confused:
Attachments work just fine, so maybe I'll have to stick to that. But it would have been nice to have images in the posts...:o
