+===== Alternatives =====
+Before you consider whether to embed images into your forum post, alternatives are\\
+in posting a reply or new topic, attach images\\
+--provide web links to images
+=====My way of embedding=====
+Either join a permanent site for hosting images or look for sites that offer some number of days where the image can be viewed by forum users
+I chose tinypic.com
+You can create folders to organise your photos from friends to forums etc.
+After creating an appropriate folder and uploading an image, I prefer jpg to condense size
+click on it to get the larger image
+Next right hand click (for a right handed user) the actual image and grab the url for the actual image\\
+This is likely to differ from the link showing in your address bar.

+Next in the forum post in the normal text area I write, with a tweak to help those with smaller resolutions
+<code>
+[img width=128 height=80]
+the copied url to image
+[/img]
