upload you pics to photobucket.

copy the direct link

then in your new post window click on and allow the pop up.

insert the direct link into the popup and your done

just make sure to click in the post window after you have added the photo, before posting or you will loose the pic, in other words make sure there is no little white squares around the picture, just click the mouse next to the pic. and if you are adding more than 1 pic push enter a couple of times or all the pics will post next to each other and that sucks.

what i did was went to the test forum and gave it a bit of practise. and there are also instructions down there to, to help you out. good luck.
