Post a message.
Click on EDIT.
You will see down at the bottom a box marked BROWSE. Click on that and locate your file. Click on OPEN
Then click on EDIT POST.
The jpd will display at bottom of your post.
Note vulture's exhortation to limit the size of the image so as not to distort the forum display, on pain of having the image deleted.
I have not been able to figure out how to upload more than one jpg (or attachment) per post. Other than by combining them in a zip archive file which
obviously will not display.

Another method for posting images is the use of [ img] and [ /img] tags, of course, without the space after the [.
Put the image somewhere on the Internet, where it can be accessed. E.g., I have an image at my website, which has the following URL:
http://woelen.scheikunde.net/science/chem/bubbling.gif
If you want to include such an image in a text message, then use the following format:
[ img] http :// woelen .scheikunde. net / science / chem / bubbling . gif [/ img]
Remove all the spaces and the result is
Multiple images now is easy. For each image use the [img] and [ /img] tags. Here follow some images, just after each other.
This can be used for any image type, e.g. jpg, tiff, gif, tga, etc.

Plus, as I have pointed out before, there's a thread that explains how to upload pictures onto the local Sciencemadness FTP.
https://sciencemadness.org/talk/viewthread.php?tid=603
Pictures/files are again up to 1 MB in size.
You can essentially tag the pics as Woelen describes, obviously then with the correct URL.

Well threats work, don't they 
Of course you'd be nagged at by countless members and staff if the pic is outrageously big and recent, waaay before any deletion could ever take
place. Noone wants to scroll back and forth all the time to read each single line of text!

I was not complaining. Merely reminding.
