For anyone interested,
If you find a picture on a thread you like, simply right click it, go to 'properties'. Then copy the address/url (
http://etc...)
Then you can either click the "insert image" button when you are making your post (next to the bold/italics/underline/text color/etc...) which will bring up a pop up window to insert that address/url you just copied. Or you can just paste the address/url you copied into the message box and surround it with image tags
[ img ] http: //www . image address here .com [ / img ]
(no spaces of course)

If you'd like to attach a link to words or sentences
LIKE THIS, CLICK HERE!! YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO! there are 2 ways to do that as well.
You can type out the sentence, then highlight the word(s) you'd like to be linked. Then click the "insert link" button (located next to the insert image button). This brings a pop up window up where you can insert the web address you'd like to link to. Insert the address and click okay, it will then automatically add the proper coding around the words you had highlighted.
Or you can just type out the tags like this
Lets say you want to link
www.cornsnakes.com to the words "potato salad". It would look like this:
[ url = www. cornsnakes. com ] potato salad [ / url ]
potato salad
Again, you'd do it with no spaces

When I make my WIR I use a word processing program, like microsoft word, or works, or whatever you want to use. I have a template that I use each week that saves all my headline titles, colors, etc... I just fill in the rest. I tend to work on it throughout the week, adding pictures as I find them, interesting threads as I find them, etc... Doing it this way I am not stuck trying to make a WIR all in one day. When Sunday comes it is ready to go and then I just copy that word document, and paste it into my new WIR thread (note, you can only do 10 pictures at a time...I believe any smiley emoticons count as a picture.) So if you do use a word processing document it is handy to get to know the tags used like the [ img ] [ / img ] and [ url = ] [ / url ] etc... because you would have to type that out by hand on a .doc
