Ok, what are the steps?  I'm not completely computer illiterate but can't figure this one out.

Hi Brad,

You have to upload your pictures somewhere, I use Picasa (http://picasa.google.com/).  There are other places like photobucket, etc.  Once you have them uploaded all you need is the URL to the image and then you click the "Insert Image" button above the second smiley and paste your image URL between the img tags.  Then it will display your picture in your post.  It's really easy once you do it the first time.  Feel free to call me once you get an image uploaded if you want some help the first time.

I quite like Photobucket for pics, but NOT for vids.

Once the pics are uploaded int Photobucket, you simply hover your cursor over the pic you want. A 'drop down' menu appears. Move your cursor down to 'image code' and click. The correct link and image display code is automatically copied onto your computer wotsit buffer. You simply write you post text, right click and select 'paste' where you want the link to appear.

I have attached a pic showing the Photobucket screen with a couple of notes with pointers.

Thank you - that is way easier than what I was trying to explain.
