You will need to join an image hosting site. I use www.hunt101.com (to join and store images there is free), there are a lot of others such as photobucket, etc...
You upload your images to the host, then use type in the address (or copy it) of the image on your host sight then close it out with and that is all there is to it!
For instance, the address of the 500 Linebaugh's image on hunt101.com is http://www.hunt101.com/img/378261.jpg
So insert that between the and the and it works.

gw66 I have several light loads. My 12yr old son shoots my 500 Linebaugh with a 400gr WFN-PB loaded just over 800fps with trailboss. It's all he wants but he can shoot it well. He only shoots 5 to 15 rounds a day. One cotten tail rabit of about 2 lbs shot through the sholders didn't do much more damage than a 22lr hollow point and less than a 22mag.
