How do I go about posting some pictures with a topic?
I couldn't figure it out from the message writing page.

Posting pictures is really easy once you know what is involved. First, I don't get any web space with this message board, so your picture must exist on the internet. All you need is the address. If you were to right click on the main image at the top of this board and go to properties, you would see this as it's address: http://p64.home.insightbb.com/images/boardheader.jpg
To display it in a post, you click this button: and put the address in these tags it gives you: So it looks like this: The end result will be this:

Hope I didn't confuse you, and if you have any more questions, let me know!

If you don't have picture hosting on the internet, by the way, you might want to check out Photobucket at www.photobucket.com. you can upload pictures there and have them available to post.

They even give you the 'IMG' tag so you can just copy and paste. Very easy, and free.

Same with www. imageshack.us
