Steam screenshot?

You go to the screenshot's page and click Share button, which will give you the link (the same URL as to details page of the image, and not directly to the image file).

Lol, didn't think anyone would get that comment in time. Lol, fail on my part.

It's an intersection, in LA. North-West-ish.

No, not with [url=<direct_address_to_the_image>]<link_text>[/url]

But simply something like this instead (for your deleted example):

Go into your screenshots in your Steam profile (http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198248132948/screenshots/) which contains all your screenshots you've taken and uploaded and then paste in the link into any discussion of the screenshot you wish to show. Orb above showed the link type you should use which will enable it to be shown e.g:

No problem! If you click on the image and copy the address above it in the blue toolbar e.g (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=690150255) that's all you need to paste in for it to show up in a discussion. If you click on it again which puts it in a seperate window which makes the image full size; that contains to the full image address (http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/276221870400326652/F7293ED6DF7CD7E4D138DF4A579B8C21D4F68B10/) which when pasted will show up as just a link and not as an image.
