Use the Rich-Text Editor. If you're posting from the Web,
the link appears near the top after you hit Reply. For it
to appear in a post, the photo has to live on the Web
somewhere; you can't post a photo that's on your hard
disk. You could open a Flickr account and upload it there
from your hard drive, then copy it from Flickr into the
post. Here's how, at least for Windows. The procedure is
probably roughly similar with a Mac:

Put the cursor in the Rich-Text message window where you
want the picture to appear.

Then open another tab and go to the Web site that hosts
the picture. Right-click on the picture and click Copy
on the drop-down menu. Now switch back to the Rich-Text
window, right-click, and click Paste on the drop-down
menu. The picture should now appear in your message.

(Sometimes this doesn't work, for a variety of reasons
I'm not clear on. Sometimes the picture will even
appear in the Rich Text window neat as you please, but
then when you post it, it will have disappeared. It
all works as it should maybe 8 times out of 10 for me.)

One of the moderators has to approve anything uploaded to
the Photos section before it will appear. Could take a day
or two.
