I'm being daft here but I cant figure out how to send a picture via a PM?

Can anyone help me at all?!

Hiya not totally sure but if you click on the yellow postcard like thing at the top of the message box i think you can insert a picture that way by pm. could well be wrong though

It asks me for the pics URL? what the hell is that?!

URL is the technical term for the full web address!

you could try clicking on the little paperclip next to the smilie, that might work as well sending it as an attachment

see told you i wasn't totally sure

I have no paperclip

I dont think my pics have web address's? Think I've confused myself now! doesn't take much!

Are you trying to PM a pic you have on here? Or one from your computer?

try to upload your pics to a free image host like imageshack.com to have a web address..

Here's a step-by-step way to do it.

1. Go to TinyPic - Share the Experience!™

2. Click 'Choose File'

3. Find your photo and click 'Open'

4. Click 'UPLOAD NOW!'

5. Copy the 'IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards' link, as this has Image Tags

6. Paste it into your PM.

Hope that helps.
