Why is it so hard to insert a picture on this website. How do I go about inserting an jpg from my computer to this website. Thanks for your help.

It's not hard. When you are composing a post, look for the file attachment with "browse" function near the bottom. For more info, read the FAQs (see menu item on top of page).

you need to find a website that will host the photo for you. I use www.photbucket.com myself. As a suggestion i'd say resize your images to no larger than 600 px wide so that people dont have to scroll over to see the entire pic....

URL for the pic: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v441/SoCalDriver/CRW_6182.jpg

add [img] before....
and [/img] after.....

if the pic is already on the website, click the IMG button just above the message textbox, it will pronpt you for and url to the image on the website. Fairly easy.

No you don't. You can, but you don't have to.

Didnt notice the file attachment at the bottom. without that you would still have to upload to a host as i explained before. Doing so would also allow you to post multiple photos at once and allow you to preview your post for any errors.
