The owner went through all of the shared ID names and again indicated edit permissions, and then it worked.
Not sure what the issue was, but seems resolved - sorry for all the trouble, thanks for all the suggestions.

How do I insert an image into a community message post?
The Insert Image tool just says "source", and I gave an image URL from pastebin,
but nothing was inserted.
I tried both .png and .jpg formats.

Aah, thanks, very good.
Then what is the "insert image" icon for - seems like it is not needed - and that is what I was trying to use - what does it want for "Source".

Dropbox probably wont be the solution you need for this because while there can be ways to force it as Dropbox isn't, and never ever has been, a tool for hosting content links are often changed and as such broken on forums.
Please instead seek a tool that is designed for this such as a hosting platform.

I am asking how to include an image in a community discussion post - using the "insert image" tool for composing images.
How does one insert such an image into a post?
The tool field "source" is too vague to know, so I guessed that it would use a standard URL posting source.

Is this on this forum? You can just drag and drop on to the composing window, but, it only works on web, not mobile
