How do you upload an image to the forum? Maybe I am missing something, but I can not get one to upload

You cannot upload an image to the forum. The image needs to be hosted elsewhere (Tinypic, Flickr, Picassa, etc) and then you can use the picture's URL to post the image here.

You can copy and paste an image hosted elsewhere, but I'm careful about whose images I do that with, since it counts against their bandwidth.

So if I have a photo on Picassa can I download it to the forum even with a tablet? I have tried to do that and it did not work.

You don't download it to the forum, you insert the HTML via the text editor Insert Image widget. If the tablet does not have a widget, you may still be able to do it, but you would need to know HTML code to do it. QVCs web forums are not really compatible with mobile devices.

I can't use HTML code to insert an image without the widget.

Someone posted a workaround for tablets a few months back, but I can't find the post.

If the image is online, you just right-click on it and choose "copy image." Then in this box, use Ctrl V to paste it in:

If the picture is not online, then you can upload it to a site like PhotoBucket, which is what I use. Then follow the instructions give for copying and pasting.
