I hope this helps someone out there. Whenever I want to post, I open another window in my browser, so I can upload images, while still being connected to this site. It makes it easier to go back and forth between the hosting site and here. I use ImageShack.com for uploading. Easy to work with. Open an ImageShack account, go to "My Images" and simply drag-and-drop an image onto the screen. When you do that, an "Upload" screen will pop up showing a thumbnail image. Halfway down that pop-up it will say "Type" and "Direct", with a link just below. Highlight the link, and right-click to "Copy". You are now ready to insert the image into your post. To do that, just type any message you want, then click the little icon above the text box (the little square icon with a drawing of a mountian). A JavaScript pop-up will appear, with "http://" highlighted. Right-click on the hightlighted text, and "Paste". Hit "OK". Your image is now included in your post. You won't immediately see the actual image. It will appear in the text box as [IMG]
https://imageshack.com/blah,blah,blah[IMG]. Once you have text and images as you want it, hit the "Preview Post" button below. You will now be able to see your post as it will appear, hopefully including the photo you want. I hope this helps. It seems daunting at first, but it becomes easier really fast! BTW, as with all images, you MUST remember to credit the original source of the image. It may seem picky, but legally it is VERY important. Good luck!
