Where is the picture? Is it on your hard drive or on the web? If it is on you hard drive start a post and then go to manage attachments, from there you can find it on your hard drive and upload it if it is not to big. If it is a big file try hosting it on a image sharing site like imageshack (http://imageshack.us/) and follow the instruction on how to post to a forum. Hope this helps.

If the picture is already hosted online, just use these tags: -

[ img ]www.website.com/picture.jpg[ /img]

Just don't put any spaces inside the square brackets when you do it for real. Alternatively, you can click the "Insert Image" button (3rd button from the right) in the toolbar and just paste in the link. That does the same thing.

If you need a place to host images, I'd recommend using this site: -

http://imgur.com/

Once your image has uploaded you'll see a bunch of codes on the right. Copy the code under where it says "BBCode (message boards & forums)" and paste it into a post to embed the picture.
