Hi groverwa,

When you post click "Additional Options" and at the bottom you will see some thing labeled "Attach" make sure that the image or file you want to upload is in one of the supported file formats and is 512KB or less in size then click "Post" and your image or other file will upload at that time.

Regards to you.

Further to this we do have a plugin installed in the forums that allows for "in-line" attachments, which is beyond the scope of the basic SMF system and so is not covered in the help. The use of this plugin is fairly simple - you just attach your files as usual, then reference them by number in the post body (#1 is the first in the upload list, #2 is the 2nd, etc.). There is a handy drop-down menu in the post composition toolbar that allows you to specify the functions of the in-line attachment function - just remember to fill in the appropriate attachment number.
