I've never used drop box so can't really help, I usually use photobucket to host pictures.

First you need to click here and log in to create a public folder:

https://www.dropbox.com/enable_public_folder

You will then be sent an email you have to open, then click on the link to verify your email address.
Once done, you will be able to see the public folder in your drop box. Put the pics in there.

Then access your drop box via dropbox.com, go into the public folder, right click on the image you want to post and choose "Copy Public Link" which will look something like this:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/197 ... 5555_n.jpg

All you have to do is paste that link into your suzuki club post, highlight it, then press the "Img" button!

Then it should look like this in the editor

Code: Select all

Which looks like this when you view it!

Et voila!
