I've had to delete some older threads because the images in them were linked from free photo hosting sites like Imageshack, Photobucket, Imgur, yfrog, Shutterfly, etc., and the images were no longer available. The same thing often happens when images are linked from other sites. Generally speaking, you don't want to link to an image in your posts.
But luckily for you, it's easy to attach an image to a post look:
Just click the Attach files button and select the images from your computer and you're all set. When you do that the image is saved here and will always be available in the forum.
For the record
Really large images are usually unnecessary for magazine page scans or photos. If you have control over size, try to upload 72 dpi images that are 1000 pixels wide at most. If you don't have control over image size, or don't know what I'm talking about, don't let that stop you from uploading. If something is too large we'll reduce it for you. The idea is to have readable text. A huge image doesn't really help achieve that (usually).
