How do you put pics from your computer into the middle of a post for a story?
I can get stuff from the internet in the middle of the post but not stuff from my computer. I can do attatched images but those appear at the bottom of the post, not in the middle of the text! I have an awesome story but I can't put it there without the pics in the right place. Help PLEASE! I have a Mac though so Windows help won't help.

you must use an alternate site to host your pictures (photobucket, ImageShack etc).

Junin is partially correct.

the position of the image in the body of a post is determined from the placement of the BBS code for images:



It doesn't matter what the web address is, the web address of the image file goes between the IMG BBS code tags:



Completed example 1 - Hosted by my Photobucket account:



Completed example 2 - Hosted by InSIMenator



To use the images attached to your post, you need to place the web link associated with the image thumbnail; in this case:

http://www.insimenator.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=112180&stc=1&d=1203732203

dont confuse this with the URL for the thumbnail itself!

And as for placing the pics where you want them, here's how it goes:



And repeat the formula as much as needed.

And and, if you want to get them centered (which I assume you understand, but anyways) you type (CENTER)text, images and stuff here(/CENTER). Except that the ( and ) are actually [ and ] but if I type that my text would be centered and you still couldn't see how to do it, lol.

This could be due to:
-random IE error
-photos taken down for some reason.
