-
To add external images to your post, comment or private message, use the same code as for a link, but with an exclamation point at the front:
-

The alternative text in the square brackets is displayed if the image cannot be loaded, and the optional title is displayed as a tool-tip when the cursor is moved over the image; both are useful but not essential.

This way you can add any profile field you can possibly think of, such as music, books, relationship, and so on.
