You either have to host it from a different website (to add an html tag to it for us to view it) or open two different browser windows of OH, one on your profile and the other on your new post, and copy/paste that way (because OH puts an html tag on your pic when you upload it here).

Easiest way I have found is to make an account at www.photobucket.com and upload your pics there. You can make changes to them like crop and resize, and then copy/paste from that website to your new post. You can not copy/paste from your desktop. No matter what - you need two internet windows open to do the job. One from a photo hosting website or your profile, and the other one to your new post. Take this post to experiment a little more using the way I told ya - we won't mind seeing little red boxes up at the top until you figure it out!

If you use Photobucket to store your pictures and would like to post them on OH the process is very simple:

Log into your Photobucket account. Find the picture you want to post, right click on it and click "Copy". Come back to OH and the post you would like to put your picture in...right click and click "Paste"
____________________________________________________________________________

If you would like to post a picture you see on the internet the process is a little more in-depth.
 
Right click on the picture you want to post. Go to "Properties". Copy the "Address" (or URL) of the picture. Come back to OH and the post you want to add the picture to. You will then need to type

< i m g s r c=

There are no spaces between the letters img and src but there is a space between both words i.e. img src. There is also no space between < and img. The spaces were put there to explain how to do this.

after the = you will right click and "paste" (this will insert the "Address" of the picture

Immediately at the end of the "Address" you need to type  >
