congrats,
nelia!. if you'd like to learn how to post direct images (no larger than 800x800 pixels), here's the usual process through imageshack.us (once you figure it out here, it's a lot easier to do it in photobucket.com.. and the service is a lot better as imageshack uploads seem to turn into red Xs at times

).
Step 1: avoid the 'Quick Reply' box at the bottom of each page and either click on 'go advanced' or 'post reply'. once you're there, click on the 'Insert Image' feature shown here in the yellow button.
Step 2: a little bar on top of the page will appear asking you to insert the URL of the image you want to post.
Step 3: Upload the image at imageshack.us. once it's ready, scroll down until you see the last option that says 'direct link to the image' and copy the link in that box.
Step 5: Paste it inside the tFS box mentioned in Step #2.
Step 5: press enter and
voila 
..
try hitting the
'preview post' before submitting the reply just so you can see if you got it right.
hope this works, good luck!.
