Use a photo hosting site like Yahoo's FLICKR, from there click the lower right "share photo" arrow. After clicking the arrow it's important to select the proper link type, click "BBCode" then "copy" the link.
Helpful tip:
For the love of all things holy, please choose the appropriate size image before copying the link! Don't be that guy who uses an image so large that you have to scroll for miles to view it! EDIT: Some forums automatically size the picture but not all do so this is a good thing to keep in mind.

Lastly, you can clean all the redundant garbage off the link by simply removing everything but the image tags and obviously the link within (img]link[/img), like this:
