How do I post a picture in a thread?

It depends on the site hosting the picture. Often, one can right click on a photo on the internet and select "copy image address" and then click the "insert image" icon (to the left of the 3 vertical dots if making a post here) and then paste that image address into the pop up window and click on "insert." Depending on the source site, though, sometimes that doesn't work (not always sure why) or, for some pics/graphics, the graphics are not "static" like a graphic of a live map or live data (like I often do with weather graphics), meaning that pasting the current version here will then lead to that graphic being updated when the source gets updated. For those situations the best way I know of is to copy that image to a hosting site, like imgur (it's free) and then once uploaded there, copying the image addresss and pasting that into the "insert image" pop on this site. For photos that you take on a phone/camera, for example, the imgur approach works for me. Hope that helps.
It does. appreciate it... Not sure why I just can't copy a pic directly in to here though. Should make it easier...But Thank you!
If they are photos you took, they need to be hosted by a third-party server like IMGUR. If they are photos from the internet, using Bing.com as your server allows you to post the URL & the photo will post.
Just a note... if you posted the photo on Facebook, you can use its photo image URL
Because Rivals would have to have a mechanism which would work with any browser software to upload the picture to their servers and host the picture. They don't want to get into that headache.
