Open a second and find the pic youd like to upload... bring this window to the front of the screen...

STEP TWO:
Using your mouse right click on the photo then on the drop down that apears click "properties"... a new window will apear


STEP THREE:
Copy  the info from this box under "Address:(URL)" Close the pop up window and minimize the main window.


STEP FOUR:
Open the CS page you minimized and paste the link into the message section, highlight the link you just pasted in then click the image button (circled on below image)


STEP FIVE:

also if you are using Firefox right click on any image on any web page and "Copy image location"

Step two in OP required your image to be hosted online already - as stated imageshack or photbucket are good options

you cannot post pics directly from your pc (the image attachment feature in Reply box is being disabled to save server space sorry)
