1. Open up a new topic by clicking the "New topic" button.
2. Click open "additional options".
3. Click open the "Open file dialog" button which is just to the right of the "Attach" edit box. (Or you can type the path).
4. Find the picture that you want to attach.
5. OK back out. You won't be able to see it until you "Submit".
6. It will show up as a mini-icon which you can then click on to see the full-sized picture.

If, on the other hand, you want to embed pix inline in a post, then you have to link to them.

I'm willing to give people I know and reasonably trust access to the picture gallery on my main website, which you can then link to very easily. The picture tags

Code: [Select]
[img][/img]
go around the link to where the picture lives, in lieu of HTML tags, which the system swallows up to prevent potentially malicious funny-business.
