How to include a picture(s) in your post
This is the easiest way to include one or more pictures in your post. It may seem like a lot of steps, but once you have done this I think you will find it pretty straight forward.
*First, click on the section of the forum on the front page, where you would like to add your post. Next either go the bottom of that page where it says "Write something..." or, if you are not responding to an existing post, click on "Create New Topic" (red arrow 1 in image below. Note, you can click on any of these images and they will come up as a large, easily viewed image.)
*Put your topic title in the title block (red arrow 2)
*Now click on the attachment icon (red arrow 3). Once you do you will see at the bottom of the post "Upload Attachments" (red arrow 4)
*Click on Upload Attachments and it will go to your computer folders for you to select the folder containing the image you want to upload.
When you are ready to insert your image exactly where you want it in your post, position your cursor at that point and then click on Medium on the line with the small image you want to insert.
*If you are just inserting one image in your post you are now finished. Congrats
However, if you want to include more than one image, when you first click on the "Upload Attachments" button, you can select and upload multiple images at one time (up the the max of 20, and again, all must comply with the 7.5 mb and 5500x3800 pixels size). When you upload multiple images at the same time, they will all appear below the Upload Attachments button with the same format and wording as noted earlier.
Then you simply position your cursor where you want your first image, go to that actual small image and click on Medium.
Move your cursor to the next place you want your image, and go to that small image and click on Medium, until you have inserted each of the images where you want them.
*if you decide you don't want one of the images in your post after you put it in, just go to that actual small image (below the Upload Attachments button) and click on Remove.
*Now you are done with your image loading. You can add more text if you want. Than when you are ready, go to the lower right hand side of the screen and click on the red Post button and your post is now live.
Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have questions or problems and I will try to work it out! Thanks

Note there are a few limitations you need to keep in mind, or you will receive an error message:
your image is limited to no more than 7.5 mb and must not exceed 4,608 X 4,608 pixels;
you are limited to a max of 20 images per post.
you are limited to a max of 20 images per post.
Once you have clicked on the image on your computer or iPad or cell and opened it, it will appear below the Upload Attachments button. It will have a small image, and next to it the words "Insert: Thumbnail Small Medium Large Fullsize Remove and then the name of the image file.
When you are ready to insert your image exactly where you want it in your post, position your cursor at that point and then click on Medium on the line with the small image you want to insert.
The image will now insert into your text where your cursor was. Don't worry if you think "Medium" is too small.
Once you post your post, anyone can then click on your image and it will become large. Using Medium will also ensure that your text doesn't get physically rearranged on your post.
