I've seen this question a lot on the forums so I figure I'll just say this once elaborately and then direct people back to this thread instead of explaining it new each time.

There are a few ways to go about it, like google docs or imgur or what have you. I use this one because I feel it's the easiest since it makes the picture appear directly in the discussion.

I hope this helps! Good luck!

Do you know if this works with GIFs as well, because there have been times where sometimes they load and sometimes they don't. Maybe it's just in image galleries?

This is very helpful, thanks!

No worries!
