    You need at least 100 posts and be in good standing to be able to post pictures.

    That was a joke, try tinypic.com upload your picture there, then copy the "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards" (should be between ) into the post.

    That should do it.

    In fact, if you "go advanced" with your reply, you'll see a file list left over from the days when you could attach files to posts and store them on the Sciforums server. That file list includes (for image files): bmp, gif, jpe, jpeg, jpg, png, and psd. Any of these should work.
