Go to the picture on MSN and enlarge it. Right click on it and go to properties. Highlight the address of the picture. Make sure to go all the way down to where it ends with .JPG. Copy this address. In the post here, click on the img button and replace what's in the middle with the picture's address by pasting it.

Ugg...well it looks like they may have changed their image hosting system so it basically doesn't let you see the full location of the image (unless you view the source page info). In IE you go to View and then Source.
The image will appear after this image call:
http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/
...So you can do a search if you are so inclined to find it.

I don't quite understand what the problem is. I'm no expert, but I've never had any problems getting pictures off MSN into a post. I noticed the first time you tried it Jim, when it turned up as a red x, the address was only listed as:
http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0KgAAALwOtDbOfZiQxJKagqnPa!
Although that's what you see in the MSN site, you have to scroll down while you're highlighting to get the full address:
http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0KgAAALwOtDbOfZiQxJKagqnPa!ieg022Vr8J5AwtGpB2UzoRb4gR1WUEgqodtWkJjs5LJT7LD*M/luft.jpg
I don't know if this could be the problem, but that's what fooled me the first time.

Nic,
Your absolutely correct. If you highlight and select downward you end up seeing the whole URL. Much easier.
