There's two ways to post a picture.

First, you need to have your picture on an accessable server. That is, you cannot put in the address for the picture from your hard-drive, unless your system is also an internet server. Places such as photopoint.com and even this site (bimmer.org) will let you post your pictures for free.

1) Use the "Optional Image URL:" box at the bottom of the compose screen. Just copy and paste the URL of the picture into the box. The picture will be displayed first in the message, with your text below.

2) If you want to imbed a picture within your text, compose your message as you always would, but insert the command line for the image where you want it as follows:

with the URL for your picture in quotes. You must use the delimiters < and > to distinquish a command line and the quotation marks. Do you notice the before and after a previous post when you go to the Post Follow-up screen? That's the italics command line. The image command , is "image source =". Easy, eh? (So, if you don't want your replies in italics, just erase those commands).
