Here is a quick guide to adding pictures to your post.
Note- this forum has an imposed limit of 1mg per photo and 3 photo's per post if you upload them from your computer to the forum. The reason for this is cost. The forum is free but has limits on it's functions. Maybe sometime in the future the advertising could pay for the forum and allow bigger photos to be stored on here.
This limit does not apply if you host the photo's elsewhere and then insert the link into the post (which will show the photos in your post , and not just the link)
So, first of all I would say that finding an online place to host your photos would be the first step. I use Flickr and Photobucket but there are many others to chose from- You need to sign up/register but they are free and you should never need to pay for one. Only issue here is that if you later move or delete photos on that site then they will disappear from this site too.
Here are a couple of options to embed photos in a post. I actually just copy and paste the link directly into the body of the post, it's the quickest way.
This is how to access that full menu of tabs shown above
And here is a screen shot of me grabbing the link from Flickr to drop into my post.
I hope this makes sense? If you need any help just drop me a line.
