    The only way I know how to upload pictures is to go on Google, search what I'm looking for, copy the link, then click on the picture thingy above the chat box here, paste the link into that, hit ok, click post comment.

    You can only post pictures from a website. If there is another way, I don't know it.

    There is a way to upload pictures from your phone to a website, but I don't know how to do that.

    The feature isn't even working right now as far as i can tell. This forum is pretty broken at the moment. Getting frustrated. Can't quote, can't post images, hard to post emojis.... what year is this? 2001?

    Here's one easy way ..

    Head over to http://imgur.com/ . On the top of the page hit "browse your computer". Click start upload. You should see this following page ..

    On the right click the "Direct Link (email & IM)". Your link will be highlighted. Right click & copy the .png file.

    or ... copy the BBCode (message boards & forums) link. Right click and copy the highlighted link and paste it in the forum.

    Now here in the comments filed hit the image above in our task bar window. It'll ask you to "Enter image URL:" . Just paste your Url from Imgur and hit ok.

    You should have something that looks like .. .. in your comments window.

    Hit preview & your image should look like this ..

    Hope that helps. :)

    2015 and we can't upload pics to a site without having to go through 10 steps. Maybe instead of a smartphone, we can have a smart "site".

    I can't post images at all right now. The feature is broken for me.

    I have an android phone and I uploaded a picture straight from my gallery! Piece of cake. Just logged into my account on my phone.
