You need to upload the image to a server, then write the address in your post.
If you don't have a website, or access to a server that can host your image, there are many websites who offers this service for free.
Check this site for free image hosting: http://www.free-webhosts.com/free-image-hosting.php

PS - if you are trying to post an image that's already hosted on a server, then you need to write the address like this in your post:
(img)imageaddress(/img) - just replace the ( ) with [ ]

Steve, to make a clickable link you write:

(url=address to wherever you want to send 'the clicker')click here(/url)

Again, use [ ] instead of ( )
