Posting pictures in forums -- The ideal way?

OK--I've got to ask, and please know I've searched for an answer as well as experimented.

How do I easily post pics to my forum posts? I am doing something wrong here.

The 'add attachment' route doesn't seem ideal, as it just sticks pics at the end of the post (no real editing foo avail)

The [img] approach using an external hosting site (postimg.cc) doesn't seem ideal either (it's more involved than I want it to be), and it's up to them to host the pics.

I see folks adding pics to their posts here, using the [img] approach, using pics that seem to be hosted by wirelessjoint.com--this is what I'd like to do.

But how?

Pretty simple.

Click the attachments tab. Add your file(s).

Place cursor on line you wish photo appear and click the "Place inline" button beside photo name:
The Wireless Haven-mimo.png
Your photo is now where your cursor was.
