    Is the first one from the 1970s "Tora Tora Tora"?

    I think it's my go, will I post up 2 more?

    Not in a million years would I have got that if you hadn't said picture him with Grey hair. I didn't even know he made a cameo.

    <EDIT>Lol I just checked IMDb and he's unoffically credited as 'lunatic in glasses'.

    There are 2 ways.

    If the image is already online use this way :
    Method A)
    http://boards.ie/vbulletin/faq.php?faq=bie_faq_how#faq_bie_faq_how_images

    If the image is Not online anywhere but is on your Hard drive

    Method B)

    just click on the 'Manage Attachments' button down below where you type your reply into. Once it is attached you can then preview your post and open the attachment in a new window.

    Once that new window opens you will have the URL for the pic. If you have the url for the pic you can then use Method A) and it will display in your post.

    Ah cheers. I knew the URL method but it sort of defeats the purpose.
    Movie A. 142210.jpg
    Movie B. 142212.jpg

    If anyone can tell me how I post the actual graphic on my post I'd appreciate it.

    I just clicked on your attachment:
    Attachment 142210

    that opens in a window. Copy the address

    https://us.v-cdn.net/6034073/uploads/attachments/236535/142210.jpg

    then you just put at the beginning of the photo url and at the end of it.
