    Can someone give me a rundown on how to post a picture inside a thread? Assuming the picture is in a standard. Jpg format I suppose. I know its basic HTML and whatnot, but just tell me how it works please. :P [Does this go in general or help?]

    TL;DR: use <img src="Image direct URL" />
    Longer & Detailed:

    <img src="direct url, for example http://i.imgur.com/Z5P2i.png" alt="Image about Reddit and ponies." />
    it's the HTML img tag.

    Needed argument: src="direct image url" - embeds uploaded image.

    To get image source link: Use image host sites, Imgur rocks.


    Optional arguments:

    title="Text"
    - whatever text you want to show as tooltip when image is mouse-overed.
    width="300"
    - the desired image width, I found the WYSIWYG editor useful for proper image sizing, but it messes up the rest of my HTML. :(
    height="20%"
    - the desired image height. If in percent, then it uses the outer container's size percentages, in this case, div.Message (Default width: 698 px).
    alt="Text"
    - the text that is to be displayed when the image can't be reached
