I also struggled recently and the best advice I received was from MacV2 as reproduced below:

(Also an old codger, by the way :cry: )
When you start a new post, scroll down & you will see a box 'options' will be open. Next to it is 'attachments'. Click on 'attachments' click on 'add files' that should bring up your pictures, select the pic you want, click open, it will load, then click 'place inline' . . .

Yes that''s the host provider, so can you post the raw pic link you've tried to use.

Code: Select all

Or just use this image hosting service > https://postimages.org
