Of course, having ones own web site makes life a lot easier. I just have a hidden folder that I reserve for this sort of thing. Display the required photo in my browser, copy the URL and paste it into the message.

Isn't posting pictures on a thread frowned upon on here as it takes up too much space?
I thought the idea of using an image host was to minimise content and keep cost down for the sponsor?
This is what Angry Bear is on about:
Just copy the URL of the thumbnail and paste it into your message, then submit reply.
The pic will appear in your post
( URL )(Uniform Resource Locator.) (its just like a house address. So addressing a letter to: "Nelson Mandela House, Nyrere Estate, Peckham, London, SE15" the letter will get there. Its the same with a url. You want to get to airgunbbs? Type http://www.airgunbbs.com/ into your browser and it will take you there.)
Anyhoo...
Unfortunately, most (if not all) of the PostImages in Neil's original instructions appear to have expired and now only take you to the PostImages homepage. Links further down the page are working correctly.

Neil's thread is aimed at the many of us who don't have their own website.
I used to use 'MyNetImages' which was nearly as good as having your own website for photographic purposes, but when that site closed down I started using 'PostImages' and have done ever since, normally using the method outlined by Angrybear and also deleting the 'img' at the bottom corners of images, when i remember.
I used to post a lot of images but then PhotoBucket wanted a monthly fee for hosting so I stopped. Except of course for sites that host their own images.

If I don’t reply to your comments it’s probably because you’re on my Ignore list.
That's all a great help. Well done Sir!
