    go to http://wthax.org

    Upload your pic

    once it's uploaded, you'll see something like:
    [ img]http://wthax.org/blah[/img ]

    just copy that line into your post and it'll display the pic.

    You need to use the IMG tag in the same way as you use the for bold text etc
    400px-Boards_big.jpg

    You must use the direct link to the image file (ie. the URL you enter must end in a .jpg or .bmp or .png, etc etc.)

    In Internet Explorer: Right Click on the image you want, and select Properties to find the direct image URL.

    In Firefox: Right Click the image you want, and select Copy Image Location then simply paste the link in-between the IMG tags.

    if you're using that method - be careful.
    Many sites don't like "hotlinkers" (where you're taking content from their site, but not visiting their site) - and replace all hotlinked pics with very NSFW images - just ask agent smith :p
    You may see the right pic, but others will see something....different :)
