I don't understand the question. I use copy & paste the same way. What are you wanting to copy & paste, that you can't?

I should of said to C/P an image.
In ie can go to an image on the web, right click it, hit copy,
go to a reply page of a forum, right click the page and hit paste and have the image posted.
In firefox, can right click, copy but don't have paste to post image.
Am I missing something?

Hey handplane, I just tried it and can't do it either.

Just guessing, but it looks like the only way to post a picture is to use the img tags with a url between them. Believe me, this is just a guess.

Sorry used Firefox 093

I, also believe, that's the only way to do it.
Might be wrong, though.

You can get the image url easier by right clicking and selecting Copy Image Location and it'll be almost just as easy.

The other option is to right click it and choose "save image as' and then choose your destination as the place to save it.

Won't that work too?

With Snaxe tip you don't have do all that.
Use right click, select copy image location.
Go to reply page, click img tool, then paste ( ctrl V ) and there's the image.
Remember this is for images on the web and not for photos, in my pictures.
