The other way would be to upload the picture to a site like photobucket.com and reference the picture as an URL link. Either way, do us all a favor and try to keep the picture file size down so it doesn't take forever to load. If you can, DON'T save in BMP format as it can be quite large even for simple pictures. And of course, make sure this will be worthwhile. As much trouble as your having with this screen grab / picture post, I just hope it is worth it by the time you get the picture on the forums.
