i guess it depends on the forum, but you can try

here it works like this:

[URL="http://google.com"][IMG]direct url to the image[/IMG][/URL]

in action:

yep, that's why i said, it can be different on different forums

if you aren't familiar with the exact html codes that particular forum use, what you can try is post just the pic and after it's done and you can edit the post or if there's a preview window by default, you can try highlighting the image (like if it were text) and hyperlink it with the url you want it to redirect, if there's such option on that forum, here it can be done using the globe button

Ok thanks. Will take note.

If that forum is anywhere similar to this one, then do the following:

1. Insert the image URL first clicking the tree icon in the menubar above the edit box. The image will be displayed in your edit box.
2. Then before saving it, click on the image to select it and add the URL of the webpage using the link icon (while still in the edit box).
3. Then press the Save button. Done.



Example: Clicking on the above image will open Google in a new tab.

Is this how you want?

I love posting images on forums as well especially memes I dont do it here tho, since I am not really that active in here and I cant post links yet.

What I do is upload an image on Imgur (i dunno, as a redditor I am used to using this). get the code for forums, high light the code and hit insert link.

Pretty sure what Im doing works here in BHW, most BSTs are done like that (well at least most of my clients BSTs).

that seems that you cant add images links before you get 15 posts on BHW
