My method may be outdated, but i load the photo onto a site like tinypic.com. Then I copy the link, automatically generated by tinypic, in a new message. Does this make sense?

From the FAQ at the top of each page:

» Can I post images?
Yes, images can be shown in your posts. If the administrator has allowed attachments, you may be able to upload the image to the board. Otherwise, you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.example.com/my-picture.gif. You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor images stored behind authentication mechanisms, e.g. hotmail or yahoo mailboxes, password protected sites, etc. To display the image use the BBCode [img] tag.


So yes, you can add them, but they have to first be stored elsewhere, either on a place like Flickr or Photobucket, or do as BroccoliForever suggests and use tinypic. You can't upload them directly to the forums from your computer.

You may want to try a test post in the Sandbox forum. That's the place where questions like this and test messages should go, not the Testimonies topic.

Hello!!! This is my first post here and it's funny I saw you first thing! :D Let me (us?) know where to look for the photos. I want to see too.

And now I'm going to go do a more proper introduction post. God bless you.
