When you post a thread, you will see a box to Upload an Image.
You can browse to a .jpg, .png, .gif (etc) type of file on your PC, and after selecting it, click the Host It button and a window will pop open for ImageShack. It will take a few moments for your image to upload.
You will then be presented with your uploaded image and a series of embedding options below it. You DO NOT need to join Imageshack for this to work, but that's your option.
Choose Forum Code box and copy/paste that information into your post. You can do it multiple times for as many images as you need to put in your post. Just Browse/Host It/Copy/Paste as many times as you want.
If your Pic is absolutely huge (in dimensions or size) I recomend you post the Thumbnail version for the Forum Embedding code. If it's bigger than say... 700 x 700, or over 200Kb, this might be preferred... remember some people may have slower connections so size in bytes can matter too.
*** UPDATE ***
I have installed code which "should" squish an image if it's too large. You may need to press your Refresh button in your browser to see the adjusted size after you post.
If you reply to a post with a large image, the Reply box will be stretched, so remember to scroll to the right for your normal posting options.
