The best way I've found is to screenshot the picture (On Windows I use windows key + shift + s, or you can open the snipping tool from the start menu) and then paste that in your post. Ends up adding it as an embedded attachment vs hotlinking to another host.
When I was in a working band with a website, I hosted my forum images there. When my band stopped playing, I migrated everything over to a free google sites domain, so the photo links were mostly broken, but I was still able to upload a modest amount of new photos.

You probably have to downsize them before posting...? With the old version, I think there was a total size limit per user, I don't know if it still stands now...

Facebook is killing those links, only allowing then for a brief period of time... like a week or so...?What is it with Facebook ? I loaded pics from my own pics on FB to here a few months ago and noticed they don't show on here anymore
Why is that ?

I have no idea and can only speculate that they do not want to be used as "free servers"...
I think that if you use the physical URL, it still works, but they aren't allowing embedding images in external sites eternally...
