    If you just want to add an image to the foot of a message then scroll down on the screen where you write your message and you'll see the Additional Options dialogue box. Click on the button Manage Attachments, this will open another dialogue box that let's you find the file on your PC.

    Attachments done this way have a couple of restrictions. Try to keep the image size in Pixels less than 500 x 500, and aim for a file size down to 40K or less if possible. The reasons for this I guess is that the images are stored on Michaels server so they eat up memory and cost him money. I use PaintShop Pro to reduce the file size.

    If you have your own web space courtesy of your ISP you can upload your image to their site then put a link to it in your post. There are less restrictions on image size this way and it doesn't eat as much of the server memory. Hope that helps. :)
