From the FAQ:

How do I add an image to a post?

If you have uploaded an image as an attachment, you can click the arrow next to the 'Attachment Icon' and select it from the list. This will be inserted into your post and can be located where you want it displayed.


Can someone post an image of where the arrow is? I have looked at all the panels I could find for the arrow.

let's try this...

and thank you for looking up the "directions."

When you "post reply," a new page appears where you type your message into the box.

Below the box, find the button that says "Manage attachments" and click on it.

Another window opens.

Click on "choose file" to browse your computer for the file.

Once done, click on "upload." That will place the file within your post after you hit "submit reply"

See it that works for you.

It shows up in the Attach Files area.

That is correct. Now what I do if I want to show the full picture within the post, I click on the thumbnail, then click again on the opened image. I copy the URL address, then click on the yellow "insert image" icon in the text window. Paste the URL into the box that comes up and..... Wahla! The image is now in the post.

Not quite as simple as the FAQ indicates but I see how it will work. Thanks.
