To attach them at the bottom, right above the "Submit" button  it says "Attach File" click the BROWSE button and then attach the photo. or.... if its on the web already you can use the IMG button which you'll need a direct link to the photo (can get it by right clicking a photo and selecting properties and copying the root address) But be carefull this uses the Hosts Bandwidth and isn't a good thing if its not your website... get permission first.

I use gimp you can go here and learn a little about it and download the version they have available

Gimp Program
Gimp Manual

Have fun folks..

I learned by just fooling around with every option, saving work as I go along and did something I like. Then just remember what you did and recreate...

For the explosion I actually learned how to add a light source behind it, which I think adds to the Explosion effect...



Have Fun!

lol, I know how to post em, but how to get a good size without affecting the resolution? my photoshop can't do that very well, I use Irfanview, but wenn I sizen a pic up it's still to big to post...

Oh.. little misunderstanding..

Well with Gimp I usually crop out the unneccessary stuff, then I "Scale Image" to about 700-630... then I save as jpg, with the following settings... 1x1x1x1, Integer, and about 92% I go higher if the size of the image isn't to big.
