1. Click "Go Advanced" in your Quick Reply box.
2. In the Additional Options box, click "Manage Attachments". You can also click on the paper clip icon in your Reply to Thread box (in-between the white smiley icon and undo/redo arrow icons).
3. A pop-up will appear. You can either upload an image from your computer or from a URL in this pop-up. The image's file name should appear in the middle of the pop-up if you uploaded it correctly. Close the pop-up once you've uploaded all the images you want to use as attachments (the images will still be there even after you've closed the pop-up).
4. Click the paper clip icon again.
5. Click on the image or images you want to post in your reply. The image/s should appear in your reply box as a number with tags that say ATTACH around them. It should look like this (without spaces in the text):
[attachment=] 9001 [/attachment]
6. Your image/s should now appear in your reply box and in your post.
If you want to take off attached images, remove the text with the [ATTACH] tags around it and click on "Manage Attachments" again. Then, simply click "Remove" to remove attached images.
Hopefully that makes sense. It seems somewhat convoluted at first, but once you get used to it, it's actually pretty simple.
