Forum Hosted -
Below your post there will be a tab that allows images up to 3.5MB in size. This is an okay size, but I may have to reduce it if we get too many hosted files as it will cost me more in hosting over time, so if you have a bigger image it will need to be hosted else where.
Here is where you upload the image,

If the image lives online else where and you can grab the URL (right click and 'copy image address' you can use the insert image tags in the forum that look like this,
[ img ] [ /img ] (without the spaces)
This should just drag the image into your post from wherever it is currently being histed,
Using an Image Hosting Solution -
This is what I will be doing, but it is a little more faffy,
Using something like Google Photos (free under a certain MB usage) you can host your images and then use that hosting to post the images in the forum. I have a Google phone and all my images are automatically uploaded to Photos (if you use an iPhone, get a proper phone).
Simply go to Google Photos (or any other similar image storage site) and click on the image you want, use the 'share' button on the top right of the image and create a link to the image you want.
Then go to this site https://www.labnol.org/embed/google/photos/ and paste in the link you have for your image and click 'generate embed code' and copy the 'direct link' URL.
Then paste that into the [ img] tags like above and you will get the image on the forum. Like the below,
