When I click on the little attachment paperclip and attach a picture from my computer to a post, why am I not able to post that picture elsewhere?

Is there no answer to this? When I attach a picture from my picture to a post here, I cannot use that picture in another post here anywhere.

Why and is there a way to get around this? Anyone?

You should be able to get the complete URL of the actual size image file and then use that to imbed the URL within the "Insert Image" icon while creating/editing another message...

There are other options depending on what you are trying to do...

I have no problem posting the same picture in different places. Example: I have pictures posted in Travel, Photography & City Forums.

Are you posting them as attachments or as a url link using the picture icon and putting in the URL?

My suggestion if you want to reuse a particular photo multiple times, I would just upload it to your albums on CD. Or, if you have that photo online elsewhere, you could just copy the link, click on this icon and past the link in the text box.
