Can pictures be added to forum posts ? If so , How is it done .Art

Yes, you can add pictures, but Bachmann's website does not support direct photo uploading. The photos need to be hosted on an external website.

The most common way to do this is to first upload your photos to a (usually free) photo hosting website like photobucket or flickr. See:

http://photobucket.com/

--or--

http://www.flickr.com/

Then you post a link (the photo's url) to the photo in your message here.

Happy RRing,

With Photo Bucket, there are four options. Use the fourth one down, Copy and Paste, the IMG link.

Choose to make Albums. Photos can be difficult to find as your uploads increase. Don't move the photos to different albums.
