I have found Photobucket to be the easiest, but it certainly isn't the only option.

For Photobucket, go to www.photobucket.com and register with the site. Once you are registered you can upload your pictures to the Photobucket site. Once they are up there you will see the picture and below it you'll see three different ways to access the picture. for this forum, you want the IMG Code. Simply click in the window next to the words IMG Code and the stuff in that window will be copied to your PCs clipboard. then on the forum, while you are typing in your post, put your cursor to the line where you want the picture and paste the IMG code (either right click and select Paste or use Ctrl-V. the IMG code should be pasted into the message. Preview your message and you should see the picture.

I had given some basic steps to follow, although not sure they were great, but now I can't find the post.

For single or very few prints, I find http://www.tinypic.com to be the quickest and easiest. You upload the pic, and then they give you the [IMG] tag. All you have to do is copy and paste the [IMG] (also called BBCODE) line into your post. DONE!
