When under reply (NOT quick reply) there is a button at the top that looks like 2 mountains and a sun (its to the left of a YELLOW frog)

If you hove over it, it should say somthing like 'insert/edit image' (the mountains, the yellow from is somthing to do with image shack)

When you click on the mountain button, a pop up will appear, you need to paste the address of the image in the URL section, also, dont forget that the site request that you make pictures no bigger than 600x800 (or 800x600, either of the 2, or you can make it smaller)

To upload the images you want to the internet you will need either photobucket, or image shack (I personally use photobucket)

To use images on photobucket, you first need to sign up (its free) and then click the big BLUE button that says UPLOAD. (now its just a case of finding the image you want to upload)

After the image has been uploaded give it a name, wait for it to save that name (click away from the name box, like the box that says description) and then click return to album

Now you need to HOVER over the image you want to upload to the site, and a drop down bar will appear. Copy and paste the link under 'direct link'. Make sure you copy the whole link, or it won't work.

I hope that helps.
