Hmm. I've been wondering about why there wasn't any easy bb-coding or ways to attach files etc. Maybe the OP is using an iPad like me.. No options shown in the comments section, except for preview and save draft..
Btw, the easiest way to figure out how to do something on these forums is to hit quote on the post that did the thing you want to figure out. In the comment box, it'll show you the appropriate string to enter.
jajaja, I guess that's the problem with learning by copying. I must have grabbed someone else's mistake. Still worked to post pics though, at least. Thanks though. Will be easier to remember now.
@Jalily Thanks but I'm not seeing an "Attach a File" button. =/ I just see home, general, preview and save draft
Huh, that's weird. Maybe accounts need permission for that.
If the image is already online, you can post it this way: <img src="link to image"> (No slash.)
That can't be true, why would we need special permission for a standard feature like that? Hmm.. Not having access to my pc at the moment, I assume it's to do with browser or hardware, if you have the attach button...
I'm using iPad, and no such option, don't know about the OP.
I'm on PC, Chrome, regular user. No "attach file" for me, so I don't think it's a hardware/software problem, but a permissions problem, as Jalily said.

But why on earth would they implement a standard feature with permissions? I mean, if you know how, you can use standard BBCode and everyone can attach, link etc. It's just very inconvenient, and lots of people, like me haven't bothered to memorize codes.. I'm too used to the standard forum where it's implented as buttons and choices for text, images, links etc.
If a Dev read this, and if it really is a permission you need for this, can you please rethink that decision?

smileys would make a big difference too. Lots of misunderstandings when people can't tell when people joke or not...
