First, you have to upload the image to the SOLO server, then you have to put a small code snippet in your article or comment, to let the site know where to find the image.

  1. Log in.
  2. Click 'add other content', then 'image'.
  3. Click the 'Browse' button and choose the image you want.
  4. Click 'Submit'
  5. You'll see a page with the text 'Your image was created' above the image you've just uploaded.
  6. Right-click on the image, and choose 'Copy image location' (under Firefox; different browsers might use 'Copy shortcut' or similar)
  7. Enter the following code into the article or comment test, replacing 'replace this' with the image location you copied in the previous step:

    <img src="replace this" />
