Photos in your posts is a little different in the new era of iBoats. The controls look the same, but don't quite work the way you're used to in the past. I'm illustrating here the way I know for sure to post images, and will update as this as I figure some of the other details out:
NOTE - Photos still have a size limit of 700kb. The new site seems like it will allow a larger image, or will auto resize, but for the time being I'm not sure what those functions look like, so I'm still saying limit your image size.
NOTE 2 - New members need a minimum of three posts to upload photos. You can use link options right away.
OPTION 1: THE CAMERA ICON
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you select this option, you click the camera icon and then a dialogue appears at the bottom of the post editor:

If you have photos uploaded to a photo album, you can choose them from this option. (NOTE: THESE ARE NOT IMAGES FROM YOUR IDEABOOKS.) Clicking this button will bring up a screen that looks like this if you have images:
If you don't have images in a photo album, you can directly upload by clicking upload:
This method will set your photo as an attachment like the next post.
