After uploading your image        to Photobucket you will see          your image with a list of links          underneath it

If you need a link for posting          the image in a message use          IMG code

The code looks like this: When you paste it to a post it will look like this:  Use it for posting pictures into forum posts, putting pics in your signature and other places on your forum where you have to use BBCode. NOTE:   For posting large images in forum posts:  How to Post Thumbnails

If you need a link for things like          your Logo Image URL,  pictures          in Customize Images (on, off, etc),          any place you need a direct link use          Direct Link

It will give you the direct link to paste into those areas. It looks like this:

TIP:   If you do not use all 4 of the available links under your pics at Photobucket and want to avoid confusion you can tell Photobucket to show only the ones you want to show up there.   Click the customize links url underneath the image:
