Max,
1. Combine the pictures into one file and attach that file.
2. Put the pictures on an internet connected server and use url address to call the pictures from that server.
3. Attach the pictures to individual postings in the member's only forum and use the url addresses to call the pictures up into your posting with the [img] command.

Many programs can do that... I often do it with Photoshop. A number of other programs, that do pictures and word processors (such as Appleworks, Microsoft works, etc.) also do so. Just copy and past the pictures into a single file, save the file as a jpg file. Please remember, however, that you should try to limit the horizontal width of the pictures.
Please do not post huge picture files to the forums. We have it set up right now so that the attached jpg pictures will directly displayed. If you have a big picture file that is several megabytes, this will slow down the display, particularly for people who do not have fast internet connections.
If you have a lot of pictures, I strongly suggest that you use your internet service provider to set up a web site and then link to the images on your site. Most providers allow a web site as part of their service. Put your pictures in your own site and then use the IMG command to link the pictures to URL's from your server into the post.
Please be circumspect with the pictures that are posted. The pictures should of course be relevant to the community and the forums. Make sure that the pictures are properly credited. If the pictures are copyrighted, it is better to use links to the pictures rather than attaching them to the posts.
