    Have you ever had to save a picture from google images, then upload it to photobucket or something.

    A good way to skip this is to just copy the link at the top of the maximized picture, and then just put IMG tags around it.

    Rather than uploading it to photobucket aswell. You can just use this instead, if it's straight off of google. =]

    Ever since I was a wee toddler, I've been doing this.
    Oh, the links I've copied.

    If you have an embedded image that you cant get the link for, you can right click and click Properties, and it shows the link there.

    Also with this website you can just copy and paste images from one thread to another.
