How do I insert an image into a community message post?

The Insert Image tool just says "source", and I gave an image URL from pastebin,

Dropbox probably wont be the solution you need for this because while there can be ways to force it as Dropbox isn't, and never ever has been, a tool for hosting content links are often changed and as such broken on forums. 

 

Please instead seek a tool that is designed for this such as a hosting platform.
