Making a Media Library image a link

I haven't been targeted (yet) by Photobucket's new policies, but I expect it to happen at some point and I'm starting to change my image hosting to my Media Library here.

Posting an image from the Media Library is easy. Posting a link is easy. But how do I combine the two? I know there's a way to do this, but I can't find it or figure it out on my own.

Thanks!

    I doubt this is what you mean... but... I edit a wiki page, I upload media, then I preview. I right click the image and use copy image address, then I cancel the wiki edit and paste the link into the place I actually want to use it.

    Now that I've said that, it occurs to me, you could just upload in your media library, click view image, then save that link... and paste it where you want.

    Hope that helps,

    Actually, that completely worked. I feel kinda dumb for not figuring it out myself. :-P

    Thanks @Bortas!

    I already got hit by photobucket's monetization place. I've got 40 random pics there and only have two "hot linked."
