RD, first you'll need a photo storage site such as the one I use as well as many members, it's www.photobucket.com. This site is free. You upload your pictures on that site to store them on line. When you wish to add a picture in your thread you go to the photobucket accout and copy and past the URL(address) of the photo and then past it in the image add on icon. It's the yellow looking postage stamp on the tool bat or the post box. It appears to have a mountain scene to the right of the Aetc... you click it and in the box you paste the URL you copied from photobucket. It'll add the pic to your post. Start with the account from Photobucket and then practice in the test post thread. You'll get it.
