You need to use an image hosing service like flickr, photobucket etc. You then link to that image in your post. You can't store images on Toms.

If you look when you edit a message you will see two icons on the tool bar, one looks like a link of chain, the other looks like a mountain with a sun in the sky. Click on the chain to add a link to your post to the image, click the mountain to add the image in-line.

Example:



Link:
Link to image

Image:
http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2007/12/funny-pictures-bah-humbug-cat.jpg

If you look at how that was done:

Code :
  1. Link: 
  2. [url=http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2007/12/funny-pictures-bah-humbug-cat.jpg]Link to image[/url]
  3. Image:
  4. [img]http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2007/12/funny-pictures-bah-humbug-cat.jpg[/img]



You can always go and test in the test posts section to try things out.
