Easiest way to copy/paste pictures online?

Tried to copy an image onto boards tonight(a book cover).It was there earlier,but when I logged on later it seems to have dissapeared.Now I can't copy over any image to boards.Spent over an hour and a half at this.Its happened before and its driving me nuts.

Is it to do with picture link?,are they security protected or something?
Is there an easier way of doing this?.

You could upload the image to a site like imgur and then hotlink it that way. Some sites don't like you linking to their images directly so will stop that fairly lively.

But yeah, imgur.com or google images (picasaweb.google.com).

Upload the image to that and link there instead of linking from other sites. Works a charm. Just be wary of copyright.
