Grrrrr on computers sometimes, eh, Karen!
Okay, here's what I know about Photobucket. Mine also quit saing 'copied' when I highlighted my option. But I never used that feature. I have a habit of using 'CTRL-C' to COPY it (and everything else I copy) and then 'CTRL-V' to PASTE it.
I went to my Photobucket after reading your post and found something I had never seen before - you can customize you LINK OPTIONS. So, I got rid of everything presented as my options except for the IMG CODE pictured below:
With this Photobucket option, if you want to put an image here on this fourm, you DO NOT have to click the IMG button on the forum option
(between
[*] and
URL.
If this makes sense, does it help?
ON EDIT: Yes, you have to click in the option you want and have it turn BLUE. Then you can CTRL-C to copy (which copies whatever is highlighted into your clipbard), and then CTRL-V when you get to where you want to paste your information/picture.
