If you click on the "scenery" button (to the right of the paper clip in the message menu bar above your text) you will see the screen below - you can enter the URL of a picture that is already hosted on the internet, or you can just drag & drop pictures directly from your PC / device onto the big white arrow, or browse your PC / device and select the images. Once they show hit upload top right . JPGs, PNGs or GIFs can be uploaded. Other file types may be possible.

any chance you could accept .webp format pictures - they seem to becoming more common.....................

Not with the current version of the software (ImageMagick 6). It's supported with ImageMagick 7, but I don't know if that's compatible with vBulletin 3.9.X.
I've asked IB the question.
Thanks for the suggestion!

Has the method changed since the first advice.
I used to be able to post images but not now.
Certainly no sign of "white arrow"
Any advice ?
edited to add. Up to date Samsung Android phone.

Still exactly the same for a Windows PC, which is what I have in front of me. I'm pretty sure it will be the same for a Linux PC or Mac.
I have no idea what an Android phone will be like with (presumably) the mobile skin.

Yep ! Easy as pie on Win PC.
Used to be easy on android but the options for selecting a source are useless!
Thanks anyway SD :-)
