Hi Steve and anyone wanting to put images on the forum...
If you want images on the forum - you have to host them on the internet somewhere. The forum itself does not upload anything directly, except text.
I use imgur. It's free, open and easy to get images uploaded (on a laptop anyway) and then you can use the image link here in the forum to display the image.
You cannot use links from facebook or Insta or anything that needs a password. Your images need to be somewhere 'open' and free to view without logging into something.
Hi Steve - nearly! lol. To get the image address, I hold down 'ctrl' on my keyboard and click on the actual image displayed in imgur. I then get an option to 'Copy image address'.
Then click on the image of the photo in the forum text editor and paste the link into the box that appears.

Hope this helps!
