I can't seem to figure out how to put pictures in my posts. I've read these messages and some don't seem clear, and for the ones that do, it just doesn't work properly. Help!

- Upload your image to a hosting site. (I use imgbb.co.)
- Copy the image link from the hosting site.
- Come here and click on the "Reply" button. Not the "Post Quick Reply" button below the textbox. The "Reply" button just above the textbox, on the right side.
- Click the Insert Image button and paste in your image link.
- You should see the image appear.

Thank you, but it kept giving me an error message indicating it was timing out. ☹️ |

What's not connecting with what initial request? Which site are you on -- here, or imgbb? What are you doing -- uploading images to imgbb, trying to get the links from imgbb, trying to add the image here, etc.?

It's timing out after I try to enter the site. |

You mean you can't even access imgbb.co? The site won't come up for you at all?

Are we unable to just copy an image form our personal pic folder and then paste into posting space?

It takes a bit of learning, but you can do it. Use imgur to upload a photo to their website. You'll find some options for resizing, too. When you upload your photo, there will be a number of link options in the menu. Copy the link next to "Hotline for websites" then paste it in your post. If you hit a snag, just ask for help. Once you get it, it's easy.
