It should be in the "Images only" macros area, but it is not.......(I think that they forgot to add p_up.gif to the list).

In the meantime, you can do a manual template edit for the image to direct it to the location of the new image. Here is what you need to do.

Be sure that safe mode skins are on or else you will not be able to edit anything (system settings / general configuration)

1) Select HTML Templates (in the skins and templates area on the left).
2) Where it says "Current Template in use" select the "Manage HTML" link.
3) A list of all the board templates will open up. Scroll all the way down and click on the "Topic View Section" link.
4) On the next list scroll down till you see "Post Entry" and click on the "Edit single" link.
5) here is the area that controls what a post looks like after you make it. Scroll all the way down until you see this:
Code:
    <div align='right'>
     <a href='javascript:scroll(0,0);'><img src='{ibf.vars.img_url}/p_up.gif' alt='Top' border='0' /></a>
    </div>
Simply change the **img src='{ibf.vars.img_url}/p_up.gif' ** to the url of your new image IE: **img src='http://url-to-your-hosted-image/p_up.gif'**

That should do it.....hope this helps.

Thanks Sigma12, it would have took me forever to track that down.
