how to add photos to posts?

Good morning.  Can someone tell me how to add a photo from my computer to a forum post?  There's a insert/edit icon available when you're writing a new post, but it simply asks for the name of a source, doesn't look like you can drag and drop.  Is there a specific syntax that you can use for something on your hard drive?

You need somewhere to host the images.  Then you take the URL of the image and post it in that source box.

 

 

Here are some free image hosts:

I reduce the size of the photo by 25% and drag and drop.

Thanks, Max!

I should have said "reduce the size of the photo to 25%", not "by 25%".
