Couldn't help you yesterday because of the server glitch. Here's how to attach pictures in a post:
FROM A COMPUTER:
In the toolbar above the message box, click on the paperclip icon. This will take you to a new tab or window called "Manage Attachments." Go to the section that says "Upload File from your Computer." Choose up to four photos, then hit "upload" (way over at the right). Be prepared to wait a while if the files are large. You can continue to work on the text of your post while the pictures load.
Now the confusing part. You won't see the pictures, because they haven't been inserted into your post yet - they are waiting in a queue. Place your cursor in the post where you want the picture to appear. Then hit the paperclip icon again. This time a drop-down menu will appear, which should have all the pictures you uploaded. Choose the one you want. You still won't see the picture, but you should see something pop up into the post indicating an attachment. Repeat for each photo.
You repeat the above two steps if you want more than four photos in a single post.
You're done, but I would recommend using the "Preview Post" first to make sure everything is the way you intended. Now you should actually see the pictures. Last, hit "Submit Reply."
FROM A MOBILE DEVICE USING THE APP:
To take a picture from your camera, click on the camera icon at the bottom of the post. Take a picture. Then choose either “retake” or “upload.” You won’t see the picture, but an attachment will appear in your post. Repeat for additional pictures.
To upload a picture from your albums, click on the picture icon at the bottom of the post. Select the picture you want, then choose “upload.” Again, you won’t see the picture, but an attachment will appear in your post. Repeat for additional pictures.
It may be necessary to change the privacy settings on your mobile device to allow the app to access your camera and albums.
