OK, it seems a little less user friendly than posting on a forum.

I have figured out how to create a new page, but I can't figure out how to get the pictures linked to my photobucket site so that they display on the wiki.

I can link, and they show the link, but you have to click on the link to see the picture, rather than the pics showing on the wiki itself.

Any help?

Just going to check it out now.
It is a less user friendly than a forum, Then again its a lot more powerfull, Fairly simple once you get your head around it.

It wasn't a criticism, just, as you say, need to get your head around it.

I spent ages looking for a "New page" button. Took me a while to find the fact that you open a new link to a page that doesn't exist and then click on edit. I will percevere with it, but it may put some people off who are used to quick and easy interfaces.

Don't worry didn't take it as criticism.
Iv'e enabled external images, Working on being able to resize them.

to Add the image just enter its address straight into the text
example http://www.test.com/picture.jpg

The site is still (all ways will be) a work in progress, As and when i discover things i'll add to the help pages.
