Hmm, I thought we had a sticky about this. If not, it's time.
You have two options.
1) You can put the pictures on some other server--imagebucket, car domain, whatever you want. Then when you write you post here on h-body.org, you include "bbcode" that links to the picture. Most picture services provide you with the links for you to cut-and-paste into your message. They will look something like this (starting with the img tag):
OR
2) You can upload the pictures here as attachments to your message. The picture can be any resolution (800x600, 3000x2000, whatever) BUT the file size must be less than 256K. If your picture is too big, Windows XP has "Image Resizer," or you can use an online service like http://www.drpic.com/ . Once you have your picture in the right file size, click the "Upload Attachment" tab on the same page where you type in your message. You will then see a place where you can browse to the file on your computer and then upload it. You can upload a lot of attachments.
Other suggestions are welcome. I'll make this a sticky.
