You must find a place to “host” images.
There are plenty of them, one example is a Dropbox account.
You have a way to place images on THAT website under your own account, and you can get a URL that will display the image.

Save the image to your ‘puter and use this site:
https://postimages.org/
Copy and paste the “hot link for websites”
paste it into your post.

You can also “right click” for “Copy Image Address” to use in the FR post.

For example, you open an account with one of the image hosting services. You can find some that will do it for free, or you can pay money. Paying money means less strings attached and often (but not always) more leeway in the content you can post.
When you open an account, you get a folder structure of some kind on a server somewhere that you, and only you can access when you login to the account, usually it is a web page as the interface nowadays.
Then you can grab or create images from wherever you wish and “upload” them to your account on that image hosting system.
There is functionality at that website that allows you to view all your images in thumbnails in some way, and do something like right click (or click a button) to obtain a “URL” that will copy to your computer clipboard a “link” to that image which you can paste in an email, send in a text, or...insert into a thread on FR.
It is all great fun.

I have found that doesn’t always work though. It is sometimes inconsistent, and the URL can change without warning.

Not from his computer, can he post it here.
He needs to find a hosting site on the internet, post it there, and then use the URL where the picture is hosted at.
To: grumpa
"You can also “right click” for “Copy Image Address” to use in the FR post." Yes, this is the easiest method. Use Google Chrome. Others may not allow the Copy Image Address option. After that use this format

Ok. the format didn't take. I'll put it within quotes so you'll know what to do. Just leave off the quotes. "
