4. Hi LAS, Here's what I do.

It's kind of convoluted but it's what work for me. Here goes. I am on Windows.

If you just want to use a screen shot without any editing,
Right click on the image you want.
In the drop down window click on "save image as"
If you are using Windows that will open up your picture folder
Save the image in a folder, rename if you want.
I then open Photobucket.com (you need to create an account if you don't already have one, it's free)
Click on upload and move the image from the Windows folder to the slot on photobucket.
Once the image is in photobucket, click on the checkmark in the lower right hand corner of the image you want to put in a post.
A line of commands will appear at the bottom of your screen.
Click on the "link" command.
A small window will open up with 2 choices
Click on the one that says direct link. if successful it will say "Copied".
You now have a direct link to the image that you simply paste in your post by going to your post then right click and select paste..

There may be a quicker easier way to do this, but it's what works for me.

Good luck! It took some trial and error for me until I got the process down.
