pictures with posts

Haven't been on in awhile and have had alot of reading to catch up on, feel like I've missed so much! Anyway, I know this question has been asked before, but can't remember which forum so... how do you include pictures in with the posts? or is that not really recommended, because of the thousands of pictures that would end up here? I know that alot of people have their pet websites
(need a special place in here to list everyone's) and I'm still working on mine (the kitties are so picky, they don't like anything that I do, sigh), but sometimes there is a picture that fits right in with a particular topic. =^..^= MzKitty
