It didn't come up before.
seems to work on reply. Ok now I see. This is real html. On Wray's site just putting img and /img around a URL posted the picture. This needs the real deal. Then again, it may not like me very much.

Try "enable rich-text"
You mean this?...
If you will click on the "enable rich-text" link below the entry space, you should get a tinymce wysiwyg gui screen. There, you will find a little tree picture icon on the top of the entry area. Click on it and you will be able to enter the url for an outside image. You're also going to have to click on the "Input Format" link and check the enable rich-text button. This will allow for all the html formatting you will need.
On the other hand, if you want to upload an image directly to the artmetal.com site, you can click on the large camera icon and follow the prompts. There is also a "flickrsticker" image insert down at the bottom of the page that you can use for linking to images from flickr.com. I actually have put images in several posts so far. But to use flickrsticker, you have to "disable rich-text."
I know there is some strange ways to enter content. Hopefully, as we get out of beta, I'll be able to give you a better interface for data entry. For now, there's several ways to work it. From simple to complex, once you get an idea of what you can do, you'll see its a breeze...
