To post pictures: First upload your pictures into a hosting account. I use photobucket.com to do this. Start your post on here, or any other site, then open a new tab. Go to photobucket and click on the picture you want to post here. When the big image of it comes up in your screen there will be several "addresses" in a box to the right of the picture. Click on the bottom one. This is the URL address, and it will have IMG to the left of it. It will fade away and briefly say "copied". Now, go back to your other tab, where you began your post, put your cursor where you want the picture, and paste it there. On a Mac you will hold down "command", then hit "c" to copy. Then, hold down "command", and hit "v" to paste. The long address for the picture will appear on your post, but when you preview it you will see the picture itself.
