ok, here's what i do:
-upload your pics from your computer into imageshack doing the resize option of 640x480.
-then copy the "direct link" url provided by imageshack (under "image details" button, then click "links to share this image" on the right).
-hit the "insert image" button on the toolbar in vivforums (the little button that looks like a mountain with a sun).
-paste the "direct link" url copied from imageshack into the pop-up box & click "ok".
-walah!
