Right click the image, select "Copy image address", paste into post.

As HebaruSan said, this will also work for any image file on the net, you right click on the picture and select "Copy Image Location" (Or whatever the text says), (do not click copy link location, that's a different address, especially if it's from google image search):

Then you click in the post where you want it, and right click and paste, or just hit Ctrl-V (windows), and the link will appear in text format, hit return:

https://i.imgur.com/5PRdxEZ.png

Wait a second, and the pic will appear.

Note that the forum is kinda picky if you EDIT that string. Let's say you have 3 pictures named image1.jpg image2.jpg and image3.jpg. Sometimes, if you paste the link to image1, then paste it again and edit the 1 to a 2, when you hit enter the image simply won't show.

In these cases you have to actually copy the link to image2 and image3, or you have to paste the link into Notepad or something to make the edit and then paste the new string into the forum.

Also, it's the act of physically hitting enter that does it, so pasting a long set of multiple image links won't put the links in.

Yes, I understand. That's how you do it.

From Imgur, copy the BBCode link straight into your post with no formatting needed.

depending the browser, right click copy link option not always available on a side note ()

so depending the web browser you'r using, you may need some additionnal workaround to get the proper working link for the forum shell.

 

ksp forum can only call from https://i.imgur.com/[imgID] other imgur http://....../[imgID] don't work only the ... //i.imgur.com/ ...

(also imgur img got 2 ID one for accessing editing and one for sharing, use the one for sharing as far as i remind the editingID doesn't work with the forum, wich is nice, not sure tho', various imgur servers rooting, forwarding, hosting, back up, sharing specific duties and all at each others and with "extranet" )
