Having problems pasting a jpg image onto here.

I used to be able to copy an image by right-clicking and getting "Copy Image URL"

Now I don't see that command anymore.

Please advise, thanks.

Do you have "Copy image address?" teach1st Dec 2015 #1
The 'Copy' right-click context menu option copies the image URL and the image. Make7 Dec 2015 #2

Look for a "Copy image address" (Chrome) or a "Copy image location" (Firefox) command.

What browser are you using? What operating system?

On edit: Just checked Internet Explorer for the first time in years and there is no command. You have to choose "Inspect element" and copy the picture URL that comes up.

If you paste into a text area you, get the URL - if you paste into an picture viewer/editor, you get the image.
