6. Make sure "jpg" is lower case before you upload
"JPG" doesn't work.

4. If you see a web graphic you want to use,
right-click on it and choose "view image" or "open image in new window". You'll get a browser window with just the image you want. Copy the URL starting with http and ending with .jpg or .gif.

Paste that into a message and you're done.

(On Windows, you can also right-click the image and choose Properties, and copy the URL from there.)
