Posting photos from URLs

Doesn't seem to work either.

Can you provide an example?

Do you mean it goes like this?

Instead of:



If so, remove the tick from where it says retrieve something or rather. If this is not what you mean, enjoy Siddle.

Not sure what you mean by that Howe.

I usually right-click the picture, click Copy Image URL, then click Insert Image on CW.

When I paste, nothing appears in the post. Are you using Chrome? Or maybe it's some add-on?

Yeah, won't let me do it on IE
