Evenin,
I'm no expert but i think you have to use Flickr
Just follow the step to create a new account, don't tick the box asking for Yahoo tool bar.
Once registrered just upload pictures you want to use. I think you can then copy and paste pictures to threads.
MUST STRESS, I'M NOT AN EXPERT.

I'm assuming zero knowledge here hence the detail!
David is partially correct but it does not have to be Flickr. Also you cannot copy and paste like a Word document, you have to insert the image in your posting, see below.
Basically you have to host the photo(s) on some web space somewhere. You then use the URL (web address) of that photo to insert the image into a posting, using the insert image option (looks like a range of mountains).
It could be your own website, or it could be any photosharing website such as Flickr, Fotopic.net or Picasa Web Albums from Google. You have to install Picasa and have a Google account for the latter but it's a great product.
If you have your own website you could just upload your photos to your webspace, remember where you've put it and then when you insert the image into your posting just type in or paste the URL.
Like this, in the case of a product photo from your website...
http://www.calypsoimports.co.uk/gifs/products/JerkBBQweb.JPG
You could even create a special folder on calypsoimports.co.uk called 4N and put your 4N photos in there. That of course depends on whether you have FTP access to your website or whether you have a web geek who does it for you.
If you do host the photo on a photosharing site, you just right click on the photo, left click on Properties and it will give you the image location URL. That's what you use to insert it into a 4N posting.

I just copy and paste photos into posts. Is there some reason I shouldn't be doing it like that?

Dean,
Most people I know use photobucket http://photobucket.com/
It's easy to use ( even I can do it!) and you are able to edit them as well. I just then right click and copy and paste.
Good Luck
Wipe out credit card debts legally!
We use consumer law to eliminate credit card debts. Around 70-75% of all credit card agreements do not comply with the Consumer Credit Act 1974, rendering them totally unenforceable.
Do you have any of the following, taken out before April 2007?
Secured loans, Unsecured loans, Home improvement loans, car loans? In fact, ANY credit agreement prior to this date? NEW NEW NEW! YOU CAN NOW CHALLENGE MORTGAGE AGREEMENTS, EVEN IF THEY HAVE BEEN PAID OFF!!
Must have a balance of £5K-£25K. Could yours be unenforceable? If so. we could get the whole balance written off for you!!!
We have also started a networking plan for budding entrepreneurs who would like to earn a PHENOMENAL AMOUNT of money, full or part time. Especially fantastic for Mortgage Brokers, Financial advisers etc.. or maybe you are a networker or working in the claims business now and looking to earn far more than you currently do.

I just tried it Margaret and couldn't get it to work.
I right clicked on an image elsewhere on the web but on trying to paste it into a forum posting the "paste" option was greyed out.
How do you do it?!

Just can't happen - If you do this you are the only person who can see it as the image is on your drive!
