Your gonna need an account where you can upload pictures. I use photobucket, you get a lot of room and it's free.
When your done uploading it'll give you several links to use. You will want to use the link that starts off with [img] copy that link and paste it into your post and the picture will show up there.

need mroe help let me know

Easy way to post photos on RC

Take the pictures and save to your PC as .JPG files


Uploading the pictures to the WEB:

Go to http://photobucket.com/ and open a free account

Logon

In the center of the page click on “Choose Files”

A window will come up for you to select the pictures you want.

Choose one or more and click “OPEN”

Files will upload one at a time.

When done it will ask you to: “Add titles, descriptions and tags to images below”

Fill in the info you want and click on “Return to Album”

Page will show all your pictures.

Put the mouse over the picture you want and it will show you info about the pic.

Click on “Direct Link”

Hold down the “Ctrl” button and press the “C” key (This copies info to the clipboard)


Posting the Pictures on RC

Click on “new thread” or “Post Reply”

Type the text you want

Click on “IMG”

A box will open asking for “Enter the text to be formatted”

Paste the info you copied from the “Direct Link” info in Photobucket

Press OK an you will see something like:

[IMG] {The info you pasted} [/IMG]

Submit the post or add more info
