I've actually tried posting the image here and it works. So now here is what you need to do.
Firstly, the image is upside down, so you need to correct that first. You can do that on Photobucket.
Log into your Photobucket account.
Click on the image involved to bring it up so it is the only one showing (i.e. not the album).
Go to the top and select EDIT and then ROTATE.
When you have it the right way up, go to the box that says "Share this image"
Look down the list (and I think it is the bottom one) and you'll see IMG
Just click on the address on that line and when you do, you'll see a little yellow notation pop up that says COPIED.
Now all you do is PASTE that address into your Post here.
That's all there is to it.
Note: you can't put a slideshow on here though (I don't think).
You'll see that the actual address is diffeerent to what you had earlier too.

determined i thought this might work

this is getting serious
last time - i never did like computers
if i copy and paste the http ref & code into google it goes straight to the picture so what am i doing wrong??
HELP!
Here is the pic
I can't rotate it as it's not my image!
The picture is clearly a mirror image - see 'Fordson' written on the grill.
It's from the Dexta Buyer's Guide.
All the best,

Html can be a bit confusing at first......I've learned some basics along the way..but just basics.......when I started with computers,
we were doing everything with punch cards...and there was no internet, no desktops, laptops etc ...things have come a long way since then
thanks to all - as you will see i did as instructed and it worked !!
i noticed it was back to front when looking up some info for someone on the site earlier - as Bensdexta pointed out its a mirror image - i won't ask how it works i am sure its too complicated for my brain.
As they say you can't believe what you see anymore.
Ahh Alan. You have toooo much time on your hands ..... "photoshop"ing the text + emblem from the top and the subscript text on the bottom of the page. It's good but not quite believable!
The original with the image reversed is just one of many to be seen in magazine publications when you look closely. Much worse when it is in a hard cover book though which I've also seen.
If I did not know better, then I would have sworn this is my old Dexta (which is now owned by Barry Thomas).
-Orange grill
-Blue exhaust
-silver lettering on the front
The similarity is uncanny.
