To post pictures directly from your computer.

With the picture on your computer open it with paint or some similar program. Resize the image so it is not too big.
Close the image and save it as the new smaller size.
Open Boards.ie/shooting in your browser.
Go into the thread you wish to post the pictures on.
Click new reply.
Click on "Manage Attachments".
A new window will appear.
Click on "Choose File".
A new window appears that leads to the files on your computer.
Click on pictures or whatever folder contains your pictures.
Click on the file name for the picture, and then "open" in the bottom right corner of the window.
The file location appears in the "Attachment" window.
Click "upload".
Repeat this for as many pictures as you wish to upload.
Once you have all the pictures selected scroll down the attachment window, and click on "Close this window".
You are now back on the main reply box for the thread.
You may post the pictures as attachments or alternatively you can click on the attachments under the reply box.
This will open the picture in a new tab.
Click on the address/header bar of the new tab.
Go back to the tab that has the reply box open.
Click on the "Insert image icon",
Right click on the pop up, and click paste to insert the header/address into the pop up window.
Click "OK".
Repeat as necessary for all pictures.
Once done click "Post Reply".
The post will now have both pictures, and attachments.

You can also get an account at the likes of photoBucket.com. Pretty painless to register.

Upload the images and they provide a direct link which you can use to show an image in your post.
