    I think you can only include a link to a pic, at least, that's how I've been doing it.

    Yep, you'll have to upload it to a file host such as photobucket.com or tinypic.com and then click the yellow button on top of the message box to include the image's url.

    It's simpler to just email the pics, to be honest.

    Correct,

    you cannot attach a picture. You can just use the (insert image) button (picture of mountain), but you will have to specify a http address where the image is located

    I've been able to send pictures by first creating a photo album in my user cp, then using the insert image link in the PM

    I do the following in PM's

    [ IMG ] imagelink [ /IMG ]

    Remove spaces from above and it works fine.

    Example:

    [ IMG ] http://www.bcaquaria.com/forum/avata...ine=1284413660 [ /IMG ] (Remove all spaces in this line)

    without spaces would be:


    You do need to upload to photobucket or other online sites like mentioned above
