If it is already a .jpg file or something similar, you should be able to copy and past that name into here and use the img button at the top of the posting area to post it(highlight the image inro and push the img button above.

I think you have to upload the image using Imageshack and then copy and paste the url here, finally use the image tags.

Go to http://imageshack.us/
Click browse to look in your computer for the picture you want, then click host it.
They will then give you a few codes to choose from, you want the hot link for forums, right click on the code then click copy, come back here and in your reply right click in an empty area and hit paste. You should now have that code into your reply, hit preview to see what the picture will look like in your post, if you like it then hit sumbit. :D
