    How do I post images from my computer with this new layout? It seems that I now require the image URL; how do I find that please?

    To post images from your computer, click the "Upload a File" button which is located on the bottom right of the reply area.

    upload-photo.jpg

    It will allow you to select a photo or photos from your computer. Photos will appear as thumbnails at the bottom of your post linked to the full size image by default. (This is usually best when it's a series of photos, for example, a dozen photos of a boat from different angles). After uploading, alternately, you also have the option of selecting a location within the post to insert the thumbnail (if it's a sequence of steps being described for example) or inserting the image full size within your post (for example if it's a diagram being described where it's useful to have the full size image and text describing it together or when the post is focused on one or two primary photos.)
