This is a guide for ATTACHING images from your computer to your posts on AP,
presented as a series of screen shots of the steps involved and some explanation.

To attach images you must have the "Advanced" editing pane open. This is opened
automatically when you start a New Thread. If you wish to attach images in a post in
an existing thread, then you must click on the "Go Advanced" button just below the text
input pane, on the RHS. The following images should help.


Step 1. Preparing to attach an image with the Advanced editing pane open.
This is identified by the three rows of icons just above the input pane, as in the first image.

Step 5. Once the image is in the "Attachments" panel, click the "Insert Inline" button. This will generate
