    1. Copying and pasting entire articles from another site to TFL is strictly prohibited. The same applies to articles from print or other media, and to posting photographs taken of copyrighted pages or other media.

    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

This is what you had inside your IMG tags: http://http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb150/megabyte29/cannon002.jpg Note the double http://

Here it is posted within the IMG tags without the extra http.

Yep, you'll notice that when you open up the image box, the text line already has "http://" supplied. Delete that before pasting in your URL. (A good programmer wouldn't have done that. If the http:// was missing, they would have supplied it after the fact. Such is life in the vbulletin world.)
