Keith, 'should' be
Hold your fingertip over image you want to copy, and you should get that option in a little black text box,

Go to where you want to paste it,

Photobucket works extremely well and it' is simple, just copy the img code and paste that code into your reply

[zildjian]

Photobucket

imageshack

tinypic

anything under a search for 'free image hosting' all offer a relatively simple service often without signing up

which can be a pain
