I'm sure the How to files will give you a better idea but basically, you can't upload from your PC because AFF does not host the images. You need to upload your pics to an online storage site such as Photobucket and the use the link to the image that's posted here.
Example: sign up for an account on Photobucket and then upload your photo/s, you will then be presented with a screen like this . Copy the "IMG" code to the right which you can then post with your thread. You will then get the image appear like this one. The bottom pic is how the image should look if linked correctly.

Huh

I host ALL my car images on AFF. That's what the Gallery is used for

See second How-to (that I wrote)

Well, I'll be buggered. I've been a member here for nearly 11 years and I didn't know that AFF host images. Makes me look like a complete tool!

Oh well, maybe the OP might decide to open a Photobucket account. At least he'll know know how!
