How do I post pictures from my computer into a message? I know you do this
but then what?
 
Just click the "Additional Options" text that is just below the box you type your post in. Then click a Browse button, to select the photo on your hard disk. The picture can't be too big or it won't allow the upload
 
One way to simplify the process is to sign up for a free account at www.photobucket.com there are other sites that work similarly, so if photobucket annoys you somehow, look for photo hosting web sites.
