Use Photobucket - pretty easy. (Even I can do it!)
But I also think you've to have posted a certain amount of posts, before you can do it.

And - by the way - welcome!

There are step by step instructions in the FAQ :http://www.thefedoralounge.com/FAQ.html

(which everyone should read anyhow!)


How do I attach a photo?
Follow these simple steps:

1. Upload your image to a server. You can use either your own ISP (internet service provider) or image hosting sites such as: http://system.freepgs.com; www.fotki.com; or www.photobucket.com.

2. Once you have uploaded your photo and can see it in your browser, put your cursor over the photo and right click. Select properties, which will show you the Internet "address" of the photo. Highlight this address and copy it.

3. To attach the image to a post at The Fedora Lounge, start a post and click on the little image icon -above the text field. A pop up box will allow you to paste the address of your image. When you are finished, Click "ok." The photo will appear with your post. Only certain types of files may be attached: these are the valid file extensions for files to be attached to this forum.

After posting, the attachment will show up in the body of your message. To view the contents of the attachment (if it is not already displayed) simply click the filename link that appears next to the attachment icon: -

I don't think there is a minimum post count before you can post a pic, I was able to and I had less than 14 posts.

To make even simpler, I don't even click on the "image icon." I just paste the photobucket address where I want the photo to appear. That does it for me.
