Are you using a phone or a PC? If a PC here is how you do it.

Here is how you would post. Hit Additional options just under the box your are typing in just under it on left side.  Then hit attach and it will let you select pictures from your computer or phone, If you want more than one picture push "More attachments" and you will be able to add from your computer the same as you did the first time. You are allowed up to 4 pictures. You may have to make your pics smaller if they are larger than the site allows.

You could also get an account with Flickr.com and then just post the BBCode into the thread or use another third party hosting site and whatever code they designate but not all will work. Photobucket does not work unless you have a paid account with them.

I use imgur. It's the simplest I've seen. When you load a pic just select it then I click on the Large Thumbnail size and copy the BB code Then just paste that code into your reply. Can't get much easier.

Suggestion: Whatever venue you use make sure you do a preview first to check if it's the size you want. Most folks have a 1080P screen. If you paste a large picture it will require scroll bars...which I abhor on a forum. That's why I choose Large Thumbnail.

EDIT Of course this is via my PC...don't know about Tapatalk and such.

Flickr works the same way. I have found the medium pictures work best, for me anyway.
