Save pictures to your computer [resize IF necessary, max file size is 150kb].
Click on New Topic or Reply, Switch to Full Reply Screen, add 1 image, ad file, add another, ad file, when finished click Done Adding Files, type in your text, then click Submit.

Because some here still have Dial-up, it is suggested that only 4 pictures be posted in each reply/post, even if your using an Image Hosting Site.
IF using an Image Hosting, ALWAYS highlight & copy the link for FORUMS.

You can always open a window here, right click the image on the collectorsweekly page and click copy image url. Then when you type in the reply box here type [IMG][/IMG] and right click between those image tags and select paste. It then does this when you enter submit (see image below for sample) or preview before submitting. That's known as a redirect where the image is hosted elsewhere.

Here's the other two done the same way. Copy and paste the image URL from the picture you want between the image tags.

If you do it the way Dick suggested (and that is the way I do it) you do need to have some text in the body of the message for the pictures to post, even if it's just a ^ or something.
