It isn't that hard to do. It is just a series of small steps you need to go through.
Step 1 - find a place on the web to store your piccy files.
Step 2 - You will need to register with them (genuine info is not required) and there are quite a few free ones out there.
Step 3 - Copy your piccy files to that site (it is called uploading, but don't worry about that).
Step 4 - each piccy file has a unique address, take a note of that address.
Step 5 - start a new post here, select and put the piccy address in between the middle two square brackets. - post thread.
So here we go...
Step 1 -go to www.photobucket.com and create a free account.
Step 2 - Details don't have to be 100% accurate. It is fairly easy to use.
Step 3 - It asks you to browse on your computer to select the picture files to want to upload onto it's servers.
Click on the top 'Browse' button.
Go to the place where you piccy is stored on your computer. I am going to use a piccy called thechase.jpg as an example.

The piccy file has been selected as is ready to be uploaded. You can do more than one file, but we will leave it like that now. click on the 'Upload' button
The piccy files are being transfered from the computer to the web site.
You will now see the piccies on the web site.
Step 4 - Select the text in the 'URL Link' (click on the beginning of the text and drag along to the end), then Holding down the 'Ctrl' button press the 'c' button.
Step 5 - Start a new posting or reply to an existing one.
Now select
In between the inside two square brackets, place the cursor, then Holding down the 'Ctrl' button press the 'v' button.
The post the posting. And you should end up with a posting like this (well if it is only the same piccy.)
