If uploading make sure it is a small size (physical byte size).
This seems to affect whether it's displayed or you get the download link.

If it's on another site then use the image link, e.g.
Code:
[img]put in here the url to the image.jpg[/img]

Three options:
1) Post images smaller than the screen and they'll display automatically.

2) Host them elsewhere (eg. photobucket, imageshack etc.) and post the images URL inside [img]https://www.imageurl.com[/img] tags. This is good because it'll help stop the BCF server grinding to a halt.

3) Open the image you attached, copy the URL, go back to the original post, click edit, add the image URL inside [img] tages and re-submit your post.

Old Thread Alert!
