One way is to post it online on an image website like imgbb. Then use the link to post it on here.

I haven't done so in a while, but if you are logged in from your phone, when you are posting you can upload attachment (see button below) and then just select a photo from your library and it should work.

Here's a photo for you, from our win over Nova.
Copy image location, click "Img" option on the header options above the message space, insert the location specifics between the "img" blocks.

Lol, not surprising in my case... 52 year olds can be slow to adapt...

I'm old enough where i remember:
- when calculators were first introduced and could be bought by typical families... my father got access to one when i was 6 in 1974-- he taught HS math and the school bought them for the teachers to borrow.
- i was a junior in 1988 when my college started its first "computer lab"... 3 Mac computers and one printer for a student body of 3k... we would have to reserve computer time in 30 minute chunks, often to come into the lab at 2am. (note: this was not Providence College).
- i was 15 in 1983 when we got our first countertop microwave... before then we'd put a Howard Johnson's mac-and-cheese in the oven for 45 minutes before it was edible.

ok, i'm almost there...

i went to the Upload Attachment tab, clicked Documents, found a photo file... uploaded but it's huge...

the scale of the photo is freakin enormous... next question is how to reduce the size

Edit-- the first photo i post will be of the basketball court in my yard... the kids and i painted the court last Summer. In the last month, due to the shutdown, some diffetent people have been out for walks past my house. 2 days ago a couple were walking by and yelled over to us, and complimented our simple court design for one specific reason... and thought this site would get a kick out of it...
