As near as I can tell, pretty much the same as the old site.  It has to be on your computer, then:

Click on "Preview"
Click on "Click or drag flies...."
Select the pic
Click "Open"

And Bob's yer uncle.

If the file is too big to post, I e-mail it to myself, selecting the faster option when I copy & paste it into the e-mail, download that version, and use it.

And if there's an easier way, I'd love to hear it.

Also, if you want to position your image within your message, use the blue icon and the "Insert" button from the pop-up dialog to do so.

See my post #2, above, about resizing via e-mail.
