How do I properly upload pictures?

OK, when you are in the text box typing a reply, or a question, if you look to the upper left corner you will see 2 symbols. One looks like a camera, one looks like a chain.
When you put your mouse over the camera, it will say 'share photos'. Now, click on the camera, and on the bottom left it will now say 'upload'
Click on that and you can select pix from your hard drive

Hope this helps

Ok thank you I got that far but I get a message that the file is to big to upload.

You have to resize the picture its to large

if you are using a Microsoft product such as Windows 7 or 10 you can use their app called 'Paint' to re-size. In the 'Image' grouping there are 2 intersecting rectangles which is the icon/symbol for the re-size utility.

If you are on a Mac, I am hopeless since I don't have one

Ok thank you, I was trying to upload from a iPhone.

change your image size to something smaller on the phone's camera and re-shoot

I have a 4.1 megapixel camera, and I set the camera to take pictures on JPEG medium resolution.
This size makes excellent prints and also post easily to the internet sites such as this one, without having to resize.
