bill23 - join a free website like www.photobucket.com and host the picture there. You upload it there, and then they give you a link to use, either an img link or a direct link, or one for email, etc.

Like this:

Then just copy and paste the code here, and bam, you have your picture.

If you look around the console while you are composing a message, you'll see all the smilies and everything to the right. There are several formatting buttons along the top row.

B I U .. the ones for text orientation (center, etc), the ones for indent and bullet settings, and the third group has a picture of a little yellow landscape.. click that, and paste in the URL of the picture you want. Like others mentioned, there are free websites that allow you to upload a pic from your computer so you can post it here. Attachment sizes are very limited on Howard Forums, so this is your best bet.

Personally I like photobucket because you can make your albums private. If you have pictures that you don't really want others browsing through, it's nice. Unless you're comfortable with others seeing you in whatever pictures you decide to post.
