Get a Photobucket account, upload there, then link here.

It's free and it's easy!

Once on Photobucket, just run your curser over the picture; it will show a drop-down menu. Go to the 2nd option, Direct Link, left click that, the URL highlights to the right - right click, copy. Come here, choose the little picture frame just below Message Text in the window you're writing in, and paste. If it's a big picture and you're adding another, it's better to space down before you paste a 2nd one or the page will run too far to the right. That should cover it - any other questions, just ask!

The direct approach I use with photobucket is to simply copy, then paste, the IMG code from photobucket into a thread.

Another way is if you have an internet account (which you obviously do) they often give you some webspace. I just use that space, upload the photos there and point to it here.

Host it on the web space you have through your ISP. Photobucket, flickr, and other "media sharing" sites are blocked where I work, and presumably elsewhere, too.

www.imageshack.us is good too

I use picturetrail.com probaly the same as photbucket and the like

perhaps the easiest way is with the attachments box below the text window when posting to a thread. the only hitch there is that the maximum size of the image is kept at 50k but it'll work till you can get a host or set up with your ISP.
