1 Find pic somewhere.
2 Save to my desktop or specific folder.

3 Return to cellar.
4 Click Reply (avoid the "quick reply" function)
5 Click the little paperclip icon/button to open the manage attachments window.
6 Browse, select file, click upload.
7 Repeat as desired for other pics.
8 Return to post reply main window.
8 Either: 8.1 use the paperclip icon/button to insert your pictures
or
8.2 Write some text, post your reply and all your attachments appear at the bottom of the post.

I never knew of this option. I thought they always had to be at the bottom.

I'm trying it now with this water skiing loon.

edit: it works!

OH! no shit!
once you upload a picture ( using manage attachments ) and go back to the text editor ....if you hit that paperclip, it gives you a drop down box of the attached images; and when you choose one...it gives you {[attach][/attach]} brackets! and it uses the attachment number. ( the above attachment is #34410) and it places the pic where you want it to be! You could just type these brackets out as well, i assume... as long as you know the attachment number to put between them...

I had always overcome what I thought to be a failing of VB, where attached pics always appeared at the bottom of the post, by context. I'd refer to the first pic or the second pic.... whereas with hotlinked pics ( using the [IMG] tags and a pic's url) I could drop a pic into a post where it made sense.

Well, I don't know how to do this. I have this vague feeling that it is in some way ... (sinsiter pause) ... bad ... so I never learned.

UT, is hotlinking okay? If so, someone wanna tell me how?
