First, you need to host the screenshot somewhere. Then.. use the insert hyperlink button to have it appear as a link in your post. Or you can use the insert image button, also.. and the picture will load in the middle of your post.

Welcome to GWG.

go to imageshack.us and host your pictures and then copy the URL here.

I've been wanting to know about this too.

I use photobucket.com to host my pictures...

The question I have about the information ^^ is this...

Do I go somewhere in User CP to add that URL link or what exactly do I do in order to add an image to my posts?

if you want it in your signature, then you go to User CP and copy it into the signature space. if you just want it in a single post, then you just copy it directly into your text. the code you want should look something like this:

[ IMG]http://fakeURLthatIjustmadeup.com/[/IMG] (no spaces though)

Imageshack will try and put in a little ad or something though which you can easily delete after you copy it. Just delete everything except for what is within the IMG tabs. (unless it's a thumbnail)

oh and don't post huge pictures or enormous signatures. it's annoying.
