Ok , the box you type into to reply to a message or to set up a new thread has a row of symbols above. If you see the orange smiley face symbol, count 4 symbols to the right and click on that.
It should say insert an image: it will give you a choice of uploading an image directly from your computer where you just click browse and go to where the photo is stored on your hard drive and just click upload. Beware if the photo is too large it will not upload.

The other option it will give is to link it to a photo sharing website like photo bucket or flicker, there you just copy and paste the link into the box and jobs a good un.

The other symbols to up there will allow you to put a video link on.

If you look at the bottom of the box you type into there is an option to go advanced, if you use that to start with it will allow you to preview your post including photos before you actually post it.

 

Can also be done from smartphones and iPads etc ...

 

Yes but the gamble with using a smart phone is that the Not So smart smart phone will put the pictures on in any direction.... As I prove regularly...
