Hit reply, then eneter your message. Post your pictures by hitting the "browse" button under the field where your message is. That should get you to your files, depending on hoiw your system is set up. Then just click on the picture file you want to upload.  File size is limited to 102300 bytes, so be sure and size accordingly before trying to upload.

Your second option would be to set up a free account at http://photobucket.com/  You can upload all of your photos onto that website.  Each photo will have an IMG code that you can copy and paste into forms for posting your photos.  They also an online tutorial to show you how to use the website features.  http://tutorials.photobucket.com/

Charley, I've been trying to post a pic on here using the method you listed above and it keeps saying the file is too large. Am I doing something wrong? I'm not very smart on these machines! Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

The file is probably to big.  Try the options I posted above in my previous post.

You might try this website to reduce your photos for free. It's pretty easy and gives you the option of about ten sizes to choose from.

Just a little personal note on editing photos for posting. There is a free photo editor that I downloaded and use to resize my photos. It's called Faststone Image Viewer and it's free to download for everyone. It's a straight-forward little program and VERY easy to use. It takes about 5 minutes to learn which I think is a very short learning curve. You may want to give it a try. I find that it's easier to use than PhotoBucket which I use sometimes. Thanks, BC
A sample I used below when I was in the USMC
