The question was asked on how to add pictures to posts.
And the easiest way to think of this is to consider this as linking to them, and not loading images.
Downloading images to this program would require a lot more space to accommodate them.
There are a lots of choices of online locations to store your files. Simply copy the URL link to your picture(s) and paste that into your post.

Using Communicator Posts
Communicator is a home grown program and not all the features are not as clear as I expected as I was writing it. For example:
When creating new topics, there is a new Title, and I expected there was a possibility a Subtitle might be useful. But, this has confused a couple of folks people where the Subtitle space is interpreted as being the location for the first post. This is my fault and I need to be clearer in the instructions.
I will soon remedy this.
Thanks.

I don't have an answer why Ukeman got labeled as Guest. I've corrected this instance. But, if it continues to happen, I'll need to track down the problems.
Reagrding posting pictures:
As I understand, it is not possible to add pictures to a post that are not publicly available on the internet?

If you use any of the cloud services, you can probably get a viewable image. It may not be the raw file, but it can go through its viewer.
The better choices are for the services that do give you a simple url: Imgur, Flickr, Dropbox, OneDrive are all options for that.
And, if you have access to your own hosting online space, that is the best.

I try not to do this often. But I'm trying to speed up the posting process. And with changing code, we may encounter errors.
So, with apologies, I'm going to be sending out some test emails.

I am trying to speed up the Posts on here, and My first trial post failed, so this is a second attempt.
And, I apologize for these test emails.

OK, this is the third test post (2nd successful) It should speed up sending the posts.
See if it works!

OK, hopefully this should be the last test email - and I thank you for your patience.
Let me tell you what is supposed to be happening. After you Submit a Post, it immediately writes the post to the WEB site. So, if you are on the site, you will see no delay.
And, then within the hour, emails will be sent to members alerting them to a new post.

Just an update here. Everything is working EXCEPT the actual sending of the emails. That is no big deal on these test posts, but a problem for the overall working of the site.
It is still posting all posts that are made, but the emails are not going out. They are waiting in limbo to be posted.
And I'm not going to get to deal with this further until August.
FWI
