    You need to get them hosted somewhere first. You can use any number of free services for this - flickr, picasa, etc.

    Then, get the URL of the image, not of the page that it's on at the host, and when you're posting here, simply insert that URL in between the [ img ] and [ /img ] tags (without the extra spaces) and your image will appear in your post.

    The answer to that is going to vary by what service you use. There are many free ones, and each of them works a little differently.

    Here are links to a couple:

    http://www.flickr.com
    http://picasaweb.com


    You'll have to sign up for a (usually free) account with the one of your choice and then learn how hosting works at whichever host you choose.

    No there is only one way to do it.
    Replica wheels are like fake boobs. They look good on the outside, but when it comes to quality, Nothing beats the real thing.

    Yes.

    Take your link, and put [ img ] in front of it, and [ /img ] behind it (without the spaces between the img and the brackets) and it will do this:
