Bill, I was wondering why the code.........

<img SRC="http://tapestryfarm.sslpowered.com/images/Working/Trials/cc1.JPG">

doesn't reproduce the image link in the body. Even using [img] etc., doesn't display the image.

I'm not Bill and I'm going outside of my expertise... But:

Most forums have the option using BBCode instead of HTML - can't tell you why, exactly, except that it's probably much easier to manage and keeps people from making a huge mess of posts.

So I think that if Bill turned on HTML in this forum your code would work without the [img] tags, but since it's set to BBCode you need to use the image tags and get rid of the "source=" stuff.

In the end BBCode is easier for the great unwashed masses to understand and the great unwashed administrator to, well..... administer.

Here is your image using just the BBCode tags:
