I'm a bit of a technophobe, so I will need things explained very clearly!

You basically have to upload your pictures to a site which hosts them and gives you a code which you use on forums.
Go to http://www.photobucket.com (there's others, but the process is the same. Sign up. You're main page, when you're logged in, has the option to "upload" images. When you click the button to do this, you select the file you want from wherever it is (like on your desktop, or "my documents" folder.) Having done that, you just hit the upload or submit button.
After a couple of seconds, you'll see you're picture on the screen with three lines of code under it. Copy the line that begins [img] and paste it into the post you're doing.
That may sound complicated, but when you're actually doing it it's a piece of piss
