There seem to be a few people that have trouble adding pictures to a post. So here is a simple walkthrough to enlighten you.
1. Sign up at an image hosting site - I reccommend photobucket. It's free and simple Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket
2. This what what you should see once you have signed up.
3. Click the upload videos and images button, then using the popup box navigate to the picture on your computer. then click open.
4. You should see this screen once upload is complete, You can add tags and a description to your image, personally I dont bother. Click "save and return"
5. Move your curser over the image and a dropdown menu will appear with a bunch of links, select the link labelled "Direct link" and copy it.
6. In your posting box, you will see a small icon of what looks like a mountain (highlighted in the below image). click this and a pop up box will appear. Paste your link into this box and click O.K
7. Your post should now appear as shown below, you can now submit your thread / post or add more pictures if required.
