Okay so I read the tutorial. I'm thinking my problem is with my computer. I'm running Windows 10 which I haven't picked up on very fast. Normally when I right click a picture (for instance after opening that picture in my album) a properties tab will appear. I click that, find the URL, copy, paste, done. For some reason when I right clicked the pictures last night from my album, it said "investigate" or something along those lines, and my screen would split in two with a bunch of jargon. But I could see what I thought was the URL of the picture. I attempted to copy and paste numerous times without success. Thanks for all the help.

You may have the correct URL, but I think you attached(with the paper clip icon), instead of linking(with the yellow/mountain postcard icon). So I think you were very close.
When you right click on image, you'll want to select "copy image location(or address)". I use Chrome, I see what you selected(inspect), you get the split screen and a bunch of code.

It is not the OS or the browser. If you followed the directions as posted it will work; there is no mention of right clicking on the image, there is mention of copying the URL in the box, with a right click.
There are screen shots.
Attachment can be used, I don't like them except for screen shots.
here is a thumbnail from your gallery using the R click/copy IMAGE location/paste into yellow mountain. In Chrome it is Copy image address. NOT copy image.
That method does not work for non-owner in full screen pic. It works for the owner of the album.

Exactly what I'm thinking!!! Instead of taking all the time to fab and stuff everything under the fenders, I figure I would eliminate that whole process. As Ricky Bobby said, I just wanna go fast!! I like the lines of the HHR, and using a new body is gonna keep me sealed up and quiet inside. I'm hoping to have heat/air in this puppy. I drive all across the country doing ornamental steel work. I live in TN, but Ive been out west for 3 months this year. Started in Az, in central California right now. I got super lucky and am able to stay at my girlfriend's parents ranch. It's a hot rodders heaven. 2 lifts, tire machine, welders and torches galore. Her dad used to own a shop so tools are everywhere. There are probably 20 cars from the 40's-60s out here in the field. So I have a nice parts supply house for anything off/custom I need right here.
