It's too much fun to be able to share pictures of our work, interests, etc, to let anyone be left out when making clickable linked pictures is so easy in the Chrome browser. Here's now:

Open your listing and choose where in the forums you wish to use your linked image.

In the listing tab, right click on the image you wish to use.(I chose my pretty S scroll earrings with their glass stars), choose Copy Image.

In the forums tab, start a new thread or choose Advanced Reply, right click and choose Paste.

Return to the listing tab, click on the address bar and copy the URL.

Return to the forums tab, highlight the image you pasted by dragging your mouse across it. Click on the chain link in the html editor to open a little window, right click in the html field and paste the url from the address bar. Click Okay.

You can also use thumbnail images for faster loading pages, simply copy the thumbnail instead of the large image.

I hope that this has been helpful! Whether it has or not, please drop a comment and let me know! Thanks!
