Putting an image within a post
To put an image within your post just resize your image so that it is no more than 800 pixels wide and no more than 90k in size. Then, after you have typed in the words for your post, click on the paper clip icon to insert an image. Browse to find the image on your computer and click on "upload." The image won't show in the preview of your post, but will show up when you submit the post. Hope this helps!

I gave you a step-by-step in your other thread (why did you make two of these?).
Aside from being able to post it here on the forums, you can post it on a free image host (like they said).
Just be sure to enclose the image's url (path) with BBcode image tags.. I.E;
if you're going to post http://www.picturehost.com/picture.jpg make sure you put "" and "[/*img]" (without the *asteric).
So it would look something like this "[img]http://www.picturehost.com/picture.jpg[/*img]"
