No uploading needed using the url/paste method - unless the cover is not online of course.
Thanks again Mark. I've already tried that (both URL & Img) with my iPad and Nexus and it doesn't work. The only way it'll work is if I save the image on my Nexus and then upload on PB. I then edit it on the pad because it's a bigger screen :)

Yes! Fabulous album too.....it's long been a favourite of mine. The massive drum explosion in the middle of Never Cry Wolf gets me every time....

On your nexus:
1. long press an image
2. Choose Open Image from the menu that eventually pops up
3. The url of this page is the one you want, but delete everything after .jpg if it exists (so for "http://stuff...pic.jpg?blah" delete the ?blah part)
4. Put the result between the img tags in the usual way in your post here.

Don't know anything about the nexus but looks like the iPad's press and hold is not equivalent to right-click or control-click.
The save image on the iPad saves the image and not the URL so there is no link to copy in the forum.
Works for me because I do the copying and pasting in safari on the PB or MacPro.

Works a treat. Thanks Simon!

By the way you wouldn't know a foolproof method of getting flashplayer installed on the Nexus?

I've tried myself without success, I'm afraid. It's annoying!
