This ain't rocket science, but it's close.
Start your computer.
Wait for the 'search' box to pop up in what ever search engine you use. MSN, Goggle, Ask, Yahoo, Go Daddy,...it does not matter.

Here is how I did it years ago.

When you can type in the word 'Goggle' into the search box from any of the above search engines or ones you use.

When Goggle opens type in 'Photobucket' in the Goggle search box. I use Goggle only because it has less advertisements.

When Photobucket opens up find and click on 'Log in, Sign In' . Might look like this. Your looking to create an account.

OK you have created a user name [for my photobucket my user name is 1930fordroadster] and a pass word, which I have long ago forgot and so I use facebook to sign in to Photobucket. It works I don't know why. Anyway now you have your very own Photobucket account. Congratulations.

Next steps.
-->Up loading pics here is a joy that should not be missed. "So don't miss it if you can".<--
1~Get a Photobucket account or any other off site picture storage site. Scan from your printer and up load to a Photobucket album.
2~Along side or under all pics when selected in Photobucket album or albums are pop up 'codes'.
2~a. These are-->Email & IM, Direct Link, HTML code, HTML thumb code, IMG code, IMG thumb code.<--
3~Highlite and copy the Direct link. Now on the top of every CPYOA post are colorful icons above the smiley faces.
4~Second from right, going left to right, click on the 'Beach-Trees-Sky' looking icon.
4~a. It will say 'Insert Image' and it will be above smile's Wink and Cheesy.
5~When the icon is clicked on, a img img with [ ] around each will appear at the last place you put your cursor on the post.
5~a. You can put the courser anywhere you want to put the picture in your post before you click on this icon.
6~Take that copied code and park your cursor between the [  img  ]  *  [  img  ] and right click paste it where the * is shown here. Aim carefully.
7~The Direct link code for your picture will be shown and when you click on save the picture will be posted along with your post.
8~If the picture is a box with a red X or in the wrong spot on the post click on 'Modify' and you can cypher around till it's right.
9~Multiple pictures can be added, with or without spaces between them and text above or below the pics can be added. Just keep modifying.
10~I do a lot of spell checks and modifying, saving, modifying, savings...to get it just so.

Good luck skip.

  Is there any way to post pictures other than using photobucket? I had no problems signing up for photobucket but when I went to load some pictures on photobucket it told me my sight was full and they wanted to sell me more space. Have no idea what is going on and they can keep there  :P  sight.

You can use any photo storage site; doesn't have to be photobucket.

Wes is correct. Any photo saving outfit, and their are many can be used.
They all work about the same.

Goggle up 'picture savings'.
