You have to host them on photobucket et al and link them.
You can shoot me a PM with the pics and details and I'll do my best to post them for you
Try something like photobucket, it is pretty easy to get the pics on there with their upload features. It's free. Then click the "direct link" box next to the picture (which copies it for you), come here to the full reply screen, click on enter an image box (4th box from left) on top, select non floating image (for starters), paste into the box that comes up, there you go your pic is entered. I spent an hour or so, and it isn't hard once you figure it out. I am not computer savvy, nor do I want to be, it's easier than it seems.
Click on the picture you want, to the right is a menu, click direct link once, it will say it's copied. Come back here, open the full reply screen, look on top for "enter an image", click it once, click non floating image, new box appears, right click on window, select paste, OK, and the pic is added to your reply.
I just upload to the tinypic.com website and after you upload they have a link you copy and paste right into the reply screen you don't even have to mess with the image icon and direct image link. They call it the image code for forums

Meh. Once you get a hang of it, it's pretty trivial stuff. I've been using photobucket since 2005.

Photobucket isn't hard, it's one click to copy, not something to deal with, it's one mouse click. They have all the options. I use what I said due to the trial and error method. When you copy using direct link then paste into the sites screen it adds pictures without struggling with highlighting, cursor positioning, and messing it up. He has his pics on PB, so why does it always end up a contest between my (whatever) is better than your (whatever).
Don't give up, it is just a recipe like making cookies. If I can figure it anyone can. Just go through the steps like a recipe then it's easy after that.

Another easy site to use is Pinterest. Create a private board and it's real easy to share them on any forum.

Good advice right here. Tinypic and Imgur are both similar and are easy to use.
I use a program called "Puush" to upload pics to the web. Gotta be more computer savvy to install it (but it's really simple for me, of course, a computer-science major). But once installed, uploading pics to a URL is as simple as right clicking the image on your computer, and selecting "puush." Within a few seconds a link pops up; just click it and it takes you to your uploaded pic on the web.
There are also some nice keyboard shortcut/hotkey tools. Control + Shift + 4 = crosshair icon to drag and highlight a square area on your screen you want to upload. Substitute 4 with 3, and it uploads a full screenshot. There's some other ones, too.

This is the Camaro in my sig.

But for those with less technical skills, Tinypic and Imgur are really easy to use.

The only thing that I dislike about tinypic.com is they don't seem to keep the images up for more than a couple years whereas see photo bucket images from 2007 still showing no problem.
