How do I put a picture in the message body?

I couldn't find an answer to this in the FAQ. How do I put a picture directly into the message body? I have been trying the Img button, but it doesn't allow me to paste an image I copied from my hard drive. I posted the pictures to picasa and tried again but a message comes up saying that it can't define the dimensions of the picture. As a result, I've been using the URL button, but that leads you away from the site and into my picture albums.

My albums are posted public, but it is not my intention to lead people away from the forum. What am I doing wrong?

Step 1: Make sure the file is not HUGE
Step 2: Click "Choose File" just under the blue section under the "submit" button
Step 3: Find and select your file
Step 4: Click "Add File"
Step 5: (the file name will appear just below this window next to attachments): Click "Place inline" (with the cursor where you want the image)

like this?

what you need to do is right click on the picture... then click "properties", then copy the URL (address), next click the Img button above and then paste the URL in between the Img's

good luck
