Go onto "Attachments" at the bottom of the message box and you should be able to attach your image.

Try the Help page:

The image is still from the old forum, but the instructions are (almost) the same.

I got that far and entered the item into BROWSE but I can find no indication that lets me put it into the message.

Sorry Bob but your offer didn't help at all.

I must be lacking some intelligence up top.

Don't go to "Insert Image"....write message...cick on the "Attachment" then Browser...find your image on your computer then open and post.

Thanks Carol

Not completed the message yet in Word was just testing to make sure I would get a photo but obviously doing it the wrong way.

Will try again later when message is done.
