When you write your post you'll see a tab below the text box that says "upload attachment".

Click on "Upload Attachment"... Then click on "Choose file" and choose the file you want to upload. After choosing your file, click on the "add the file" button.

After uploading, you'll see a section called "Posted Attachments". Click on the "Place inline" button to insert the code into your post.

For some reason the Powers That Be have chosen to allow only two attachments per post. Hence why I had to place this third screenshot in this post rather than the previous one.

There is a 1mb limit on the size of the photo that you can upload. Here is a Google search link that will give you many options for resizing your photos if you aren't sure how to do that already. I believe if you make the length of the long edge of your photo 800-1500 pixels then the photo will fall under that maximum size limit.
