1. Upload your picture to an image hosting site like imageshack.
2. Use tags in with the url of the image within them.
3. Post and see if it works!

(An alternate method, if your image can serve as a standalone post, is to use CD-Media (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/upload/) to upload it and have it stored on the forum itself.)

I did exactly what you suggested. Do you see the image inline below? All I see is a link, not an inline embedded image.

Log out and check if you see it inline. There is a User CP setting that makes all images links instead of inline.

Thanks Joe. That was it.

You can also upload the picture to CD-Media (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/?) and create a discussion thread from there (or just link to it).

I didn't know about this option. Going to make threads MUCH more enjoyable without having 1800px wide images inline :)

Thanks Bill, I knew about that. My interest was embedding a (small) image into a post to an already-existing thread. Like a small image of an equation.
