You can also change the size of your image by changing where it says 325.jpg. Thanks SO much - I was losing my mind and about to give up on it, but this way of doing it has worked for me - thanks so much for taking the time to post this. I'm very grateful

Ugghhh, I'm going to give up on this for a while - I got one image to post using that system - but can't post any more for some weird reason even though I've done it exactly the same way!

It's easy to do something differently and not even realize it. Are you using the method that I just mentioned? If you are, this is how I do it using Internet Explorer, step by step. (You need to open two windows to do this.) Ready? Take a deep breath! 1. Click on design you want to link 2. Click on "Link" underneath the picture (next to Facebook, Twitter, Google + symbols) 3. Highlight all the code within the box where it says "Copy and paste this HTML code to your blog or website) 4. Go to you other window where you'll be posting your image. Click on the symbol with the mountains and sun. This is the image link. Paste your code between <img> and </img>. 5. Delete all the code except for image code...it will look like this: http://rlv.zcache.com/bald_eagle_photo_sleeves_for_macbook_pro-rd7f29f5d56b4472aa7449e8545460102_2jcg0_325.jpg(If you want to enlarge the image, change the 325.jpg to something higher. Obviously you can make it smaller too. It helps to check preview before you post so you can see what size you'll end up with.) 6. Highlight all your code that will now look like this: <img>http://rlv.zcache.com/bald_eagle_photo_sleeves_for_macbook_pro-rd7f29f5d56b4472aa7449e8545460102_2jcg0_325.jpg</img> 7. Click on the link symbol (next to the image symbol) and delete where it says "http://" in the "Enter URL" box that opens up 8. Go to your first open window and click on the web address in your browser window. Copy it. 9. Go back to your other window and paste your link in the Enter URL box. Check preview to make sure you got it right!

I made a little video if anyone is still having trouble with adding images to the forums: http://rightbrainleftturn.com/2012/05/29/how-to-add-images-to-posts-on-the-zazzle-forums/

Thanks, Beachwalker! It's probably easier to learn with a video. The only thing is, the method you describe in the video won't work with Internet Explorer because there is no "copy image location" option. In IE you can right click on the image, then right click on "properties", and get the code that way but I've noticed it doesn't always have the code!

I'm so used to FF! I just checked Chrome. It works in Chrome although it says Copy Image URL instead of Copy Image Location. Bummer about IE!

You have to click on "Properties" first, then click on Address URL. Extra clicking = wasted time! Or do it the other way I mentioned. So far that's the only way I've figured out to do it in Internet Explorer.

You're very welcome! I know how frustrating it can be sometimes.

By the way, there's another way to do this in IE that Country1969 mentioned earlier in the thread:
Click on the link on the product page.
You will see you product image on the right, right click on it.
A drop down menu will appear, go to the bottom and click on properties.
That will bring up the properties general page.
Go down to Address (URL) and highlight the link.
That works too! I think it actually takes less time than the way I described. I thought the full Address URL wasn't always there because sometimes it gets cut off but if you actually select it all and paste it between the image tags, it's all there.

Thank you soooo much for the alternative "written" steps!!! I had been struggling with Beachwalkers video which directs you, at one point, to right click on the image -- but there was no "copy image location" option when I did that, so I was stuck.
I had tried a lot of different ways to add the links and could never get the image to preview. You just got rid of my virtual reality computer headache!
Cheers!
