    It is possible but not the way you would think :-(


    When you are working on your message to the forum, open the image that you want to use and COPY/PASTE it into the cursor position in your message. Note that you are not actually copying the FILE containing the image, you are editing the image itself and copying a piece out of it onto the clipboard of the computer. From there you can paste it into your message wherever you've placed your cursor prior to the paste.


    One last item. I can't remember the size, but there is a size limit (and it is NOT really big). A large complex JPEG will not be accepted, so you have to spend some time scaling it down so that it will be accepted.

    Short Answer: 'Yes'.

    .

    There is NO "Insert" an "Image" Button/Tool.

    .

    Easy

    Steps:

    You simply:

    (1) "Copy" the (Whole) "Screenshot" (ie. "Image") to your "Clip Board".

    (2) Find the "Spot" in the, "Idea"; or, "Praise", where you want to "Paste".

    (3) "Paste".

    (4) Done.

    .

    Just remember that "Size" is "Limited".

    I try to make my "Images" as "GIFs" (smaller "Size" - take up less room).

    .

    I hope this helps.

    .

    The method might change once this forum is replaced! After moving from the old GetSatisfaction.com site, I was confused by the different methods of posting an image here, as opposed to the other "Community" sections. So, no sooner as you pick-up how to perform this action, you might have to adapt to yet another change!

    Yup. Give it about 6 days :-)

    Images are not showing up for me? For instance Jordi Kloosterboer's image only shows the icon below.

    WARNING - the original question and suggestions referred to "this new feed" - but that was the previous new feed! Not the Vanilla Communities feed activated March 2021!
