You can't. you need to use a separate image hosting service. a good one is http://www.imageshack.us

Alessandro,

The image you wish to insert in a post has to reside on a web site somewhere.
Then, you use the [img] tags to point to the appropriate web site location.

Does that help?

Take care, Bob

No, but you must use someone's web site to host the image. If
you have a friend with a web site, you can simply place your image there,
and then point to it using the [img] tags. Or, as Plutonian was trying to tell
you, you can use an image-hosting service like the one he suggested.

For that matter, you can e-mail me your image, and I'll set up a post here
which demonstrates what we're talking about if you like.

Take care, Bob
