I've had to explain the image uploading process a couple of times in the last few days. So I did this little pictorial of the process.
This method uploads your pictures to a separate server.
If you have another place that you upload pictures to then just go to the picture, copy the URL, and paste in the "Image" pop up. See last picture The same can be done with video from Youtube using the Video Button.
Remember that the Image pop up always puts the Image code at the bottom of your post where your cursor is, so you may need to cut and paste in the post to arrange things the way you like.
Preview is a great feature

Another good way to post photos is from an existing album on Facebook. Dont worry, this method will not link your Facebook profile, so if you are wanting to keep it private, there shouldnt be any issues. This will also work for most photos that arent yours. If you are linking a photo from another friends profile, you can skip the first step.
(Posting from IMGUR and pretty much anywhere on the 'net follows the same process. Just follow the last 3 steps.)

Hello, this subject still comes up all the time. While some of the prompting "LOOKS" a little different, the outcome is still the same. The processes above are still used, but I will give you another idea in doing this with SEVERAL images. While you can do this multiple ways, I'm going to post what is easiest for me. This is for images you don't have hosted anywhere else. In that case just use the "Insert Image" button and paste the URL of that image like stated above.
Select "Host an image button"
When the host an image dialogue comes up, you can either drag and drop your images or use the "Select Files" link. If drag and drop, select all your images at once and drop them anywhere in the dialogue window. If they are in different locations, I recommend using the "Select Files" button to add files.
Once all your files have been selected, click the "Send All" button.
Each file will have a progress bar.
When all the files are uploaded, you should have links to use.
While you could use the cut and paste of the links highlighted below going back and forth between this window and Insert Image, I would not recommend it. It can get confusing and you can also loose your place.
I would just click the "Insert All" link instead.
Once inserted you should have something like this in the new post window.
Once you have all your images dumped into the txtbox type up your message! If you wanted to have your images inline with what your typing, much like this post. Each image is between the
Code:
[url=.. and the [/url]
As highlighted below.
I hope this helps a little. I know for the most part, it just repeats a lot of what was said.
