    Use the paperclip button on the "Go Advanced" post page to attach an image.

    The simplest way by far is use an outside site like photobucket. Once you get an account set up you can copy links and past directly to your post.
    Directions for pasting pics from Photobucket:
    Upload pics to PB
    Click the "share" tab above the pic you want to post, a pop-up window opens
    Click the "get link code" tab on the pop-up
    Copy the URL for full size "IMG for bulletin boards & forums"
    Paste it directly to your post and you get your pic.

    Or if you choose to upload to 3reef:
    Go to your profile page by clicking your username
    create a photo album on your page
    Upload your pics to your album. 3reef usually sizes them for you if they are too big.
    Once the pics are in your album right click on the one you would like to attach to your post an click the "copy image url" option
    Click the "insert image" icon at the top of the text box, a pop-up appears.
    Copy the URL into the box and hit ok.
    Your pic will appear in your post like this:
    [​IMG]
    Hope this helps! Now get the pics uploaded! I'm curious to see what you need ID'd. ;D

    Oh and of course you could attach them directly from your computer. But I prefer the copy past method from photobucket. The pics stay large enough that people can see what you're showing. ;D
