Good Day to All!
I'm updating this section with a much better simplified explanation on how to post pictures here. It isn't my explanation, but I admit that I could not have written it simpler/better myself.
Special thanks to SINZA of the Exotic Automatic weapons forum for making this tutorial available.
PS: Continue down the thread for a tutorial video for an example of posting a picture on the forum.

O.k.....it's really easy, just let me get past the long
explanations.
There are 3 way I know of to post a picture.
From
another websight
From Photobucket account
From your home computer
They
all have one thing in common, you will need to copy and paste a
"address" for your picture into one of the above buttons.
See
that row of buttons above the area when typing a post? They do great
things, check them all out.
This one, , allows you
to post pictures from your computer by picking the picture, picking the
size, then hosting it. This gives you a address you can copy and put
into out next button.
This button is where all
picture address will be pasted. click this button and paste the address
you got from the above hosting or from Photobucket or another website.
How
to take pictures from another website
If you see a cool picture
on another site and you want to post it here you can right click on the
picture and then click on 'Properties' and it will show you the address.
Copy and paste this address.
How to post pictures from
Photobucket.com
Go to photobucket.com and create a account.
Upload and store pictures in your account. Copy the 'direct link' to the
picture and then paste in the Picture Button.
So...to post
pictures.
1. Copy the address from one of the tree areas mentioned
above.
2. Push the Picture Button.
3.
Paste the address of the picture into the blank space.
4. Press the
OK button.
There is also a VIDEO button up there, it works kinds
the same. You can also store video in Photobucket accounts and post them
by using the EMBED code.
Use the EMBED code when pasting any YouTube
or Photobucket videos.
