How to include (and in which form) photos in forum messages ?

Leo.

You can link pictures from other sites into your messages, Gavris.

Just find out the url including the .jpg or .gif or whatever and paste it. :p

As Belisarius has already pointed out, the pictures need to be on a website - just put them somewhere on your own web page, if you have one.

There are three ways to include a picture in your message:

• First, again as Belisarius pointed out, just cut-and-paste the URL into the message.
  It will look like this: http://image2.ectopia.net/spwaw/SpwawWRsmall.jpg
• Second, to make it look nicer, you can type the URL like this: p://image2.ectopia.net/spwaw/SpwawWRsmall.jpg]my picture[/url]This would look like: [url="http://image2.ectopia.net/spwaw/SpwawWRsmall.jpg"]my picture
• Third, you can display the picture by typing something like this:
  [img]http://image2.ectopia.net/spwaw/SpwawWRsmall.jpg[/img]
  This would look like this:
  

The first and second options would be best if you have a large picture.
Hope this helps!
