3. You Copy the Photo's URL and Paste it in Your Message Body
If you see a pic online that you like, right-click it and select properties. You will see the photo's URL. Highlight it, copy it, and paste it in your message here.

Careful about copyrights and stealing bandwidth.

personal photo's can be uploaded to a site like www.photobucket.com (free account) and then attached here. hope that helps.

Photobucket gives you the 'string' to use to attach your picture.

on edit. sorry spelling error in URL. corrected.

5. have to host the picture
The picture has to be on a web server somewhere. Your own personal space or another website. Then you just paste it as an html link like any other.

6. It has to be hosted online.
Go to "Options" on the "Latest" page. Click "Edit your profile." Go down to "Signature" and enter the URL where your picture resides. Click "Update." Revel in your accomplishment.
