If you are addicted to the ease that Photobucket offers its users then this
guide should help you utilize photobucket to help enhance your Spongefish
lessons!
1. Find the appropriate picture from photbucket.com (you can use
this with out having an account, just use the search box to help you find what you want)
2. Once you have found the image, click on the picture so that the
browser shows you just your image, and a list of links on the right hand side.
3. Copy and paste the "HTML TAGS Websights & Blogs" box which is the third box down.
4. Paste the link into your Spongefish lesson where you want the image to appear. The picture will not reveal just yet, it should still be in HTML format.
(here I have copy and pasted the HTML link directly into my Spongefish browser.)
5. Once finished writing your publication and
adding all the appropriate pictures hit the 'publish’ button on the far top right of the spongefish browser.
HINT: When you view your publication you will see
that the images still appear to be in HTML code. This is okay.
6. Now you are going to have to click on your profile (the easiest way is to
click on your name next to your picture). This should send you back to your
homepage.
7. On the left hand side, underneath your picture you should see a link “My
Content”, click this and it will take you back to your publication list.
8. Once looking at your impressive publication list, click on the “EDIT” button next to the publication you just posted.
9. You should now be looking at the text you just published including the HTML for the
photos. Click the HTML , scrolling over it should reveal the image.
10. Click the HTML again and you should see an image box surround your photo. If you click it a third
time this should automatically embed the image into your post. (Sometimes you have to click outside the box to make it stick)
Now hit the
publish button again and you are ready to roll!
I hope this has been helpful. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions, and please bear in mind that Spongefish is a blossoming growing site in need of your patience and support. And I believe we all remember how hard puberty was.

Thanks for providing the help! This works for embedding any html for items from other sites - videos from Revver, etc. As Michael noted in another comment, you can also pull in videos from YouTube and creative commons licensed photos from Flickr via the "Add Video" and "Add Photo" functionality, respectively, when creating something on SpongeFish.

You can also use Flickr by simply clicking on "Add Photo" and then "The Web" which enables you to search Flickr and add photos directly into your content. Reply...
