You have to upload it to a photo hosting site and then copy/paste the URL into the box that opens when you click the pic icon just above the full screen dialogue box. You may be able to copy the URL directly from a pic that's already on a website, this is hit or miss depending on the type of image file. There's no way to post a pic directly from your device.

I use Imgur.com. It's very easy to use, and there are tutorials online on how to upload pics and link them to message boards.

Just right click on the pic, "copy image address", and then click the pic icon on this site, "insert a non floating image" and paste the address into the dialogue box. Be sure to check your privacy settings if you don't want personal pics in the public domain.

Great information. Can you tell me how to upload my personal photos to Imgur? I want to post some pictures of my puppies. It was about a year ago that I got them after our other two dawgs passed.

It's fairly easy. Once you log into your account there's an "add images" button. Once you press that, you can drag and drop images right into your gallery.

Thanks. I got it. Just sent some pics of the Joe Bonamassa concert to the dude who got me the tix. Very cool.

Thanks again.
