You can add pictures to your post very easily. There are 2 ways to have them displayed - as clickable thumbnails, or full-size in the body of the message.

(Trust me - the following description makes it sound a LOT harder than it is )

Adding pictures that are stored on your computer somewhere:
- Once you've entered your new post or reply...

1 -  Below the text entry box is a clickable "Attach File(s)" button - click it - and a new entry box will open up below, named "File Upload".
2 - Click the top "Browse" button.
3 - A new window will pop up, saying "Choose Files to Upload". (the window will probably be the last directory you saved something to).
4 - Navigate around your computer and find the picture you want to put in your post or reply. Double-Click on it.
5 - The window will disappear, and the file location info, and picture name will automatically be loaded into the correct fields.
6 - Repeat steps 2 to 5 with subsequent pictures, using the next available "Browse" button. (You can add up to 10 pictures in a single post/reply.)

7 - When you're done adding pictures, click the "upload file(s)" button at the bottom of the box. (Depending on file size, this may take several minutes to complete).

When it's done uploading, there will some Bold Text that says "Attached:" - with all of the filenames you've uploaded - each filename followed by: [remove] [insert]

Choice Time:
- Full size - If you want a picture(s) "full-size" in the body of your message, click on the [insert] text following each picture filename you want full size in the message.
- Thumbnails - Don't do anything. It will load the picture thumbnail(s) automatically at the bottom of your post.

If you want to remove a picture from the post/reply, click on the [remove] text following each picture filename you want to remove.

Click the "Submit Post" button at the bottom.
