Could someone please tell me how to do this. I would like to add pictures but have been unable, for some reason, to do it.   :-[

get a www.photobucket.com account, its free and easy, then where it says browse on thier albumpage, click it and it will give you access to all the photos in your computer, after you select teh one you want, you click upload, then wait for it to finish, when it is you can post the url link to post a link of the oic, or the img link that puts the photo directly on the site.

well if you have photobucket or another type of picture host then simply copy the img code and paste it in your post or if you have them saved in pictures then click additional options on your post and click browse when the additonal options come down

If you try imageShack  http://imageshack.us/ 
You can host your photo and size size it in one click, a good size to use is 640x480 after you upload the photo go to my images and copy and paste the link for forums.  Make sure the photo is under 1024 k or 1 meg.

Note it will look like this in your post:
[IMG ]http://img483.imageshack.us/img483/5859/snake24rw.jpg[ /IMG] (without the spaces I added so you can see the link)

If your photo is larger than 1 meg; on your computer you should have a photo program like Paint?  go to Programs/Accessories/Paint
open the photo
go to Image/Attributes and change the pixels to 640 x 480
save as a different name
now it will also be small enough to post as an attachment.

BUT...If you use ImageShack or a hosting site it saves on bandwidth on ATVFLORIDA and Mr. Bones is a Happy Camper  ;D

If you go to additional options, click on browse and look for the file where you have your pics. Double-click on the pic and it will go in the attach space the you click post. Just make sure that the file size of the pic is not bigger than 75KB, if it is you need to resize the pic and post one at the time. If that still doesn't work for you e-mail me the pics and  I post them for you.
