First you need to be sure the picture you want to upload is in the right format - I think that only jpgs are acceptable. When you're in the regular message-composing area and you're ready to add your picture, pick "upload attachment" - it's at the bottom of the screen, on the right next to 'Action."
You get a screen that says "type a description," where you can give a short name - should be one word - to your picture. Even though your picture already has a name, you need to type something in that space, and it can be the same name as the pic already has, or something else.

Then click the "Browse" button to get to the place on your computer - your desktop is a good place to have the picture handy - where you've got the picture you want to display.

Then click upload. You won't see the picture in the "Add your Message Here" box - it'll be a bunch of html. I haven't uploaded a picture in awhile, so I don't remember if it shows up when you preview the message, but it should show up when you post.

Hope this helps.

There are also file size restrictions. 120kb I think.
