you need to upload and host them on photobucket or one of the other sites listed in the first post. Then just copy/past the address into the img link above your text (the one that looks like a postcard) and it'll show up as a full sized pic.

you right click on the blue direct link symbol on the imageshack page; a box comes up, scroll down and click on "copy link location". Then make your post and click on the yellow image box above and paste the copied link into it, the forum software does the rest. You don't do it as an attachment anymore.

Only way I got it to work was to save the picture and then use the attachment option. Regular photo linking isn't working from the host you're using.

has this process improved any lately? Do I still need to use a host like Photobucket?
Can someone update the process here?

You don't need a host, we host them automatically if you use the "manage attachments" button.

Scroll down to the button when making a post, pic below.

Click button

Click "choose file"

Click on picture you want to post in your computer or phone

Click upload

The pic will post automatically in your post.
