If there is a 'Copy' on the menu, click it, and the right click in the thread text field. Click 'Paste'. The .jpeg code will appear. Click 'Preview' to see if it posted.

If there is no 'Copy' in the menu, go down to 'Properties' and click on it. Highlight the code listed under 'Address (URL)'. Copy that, and then paste it into the text field and Preview it.

Once you have all that, click 'Post My Reply'.
