How are you trying to add them? Are the photos hosted on another system or server?

Step 1. In order to display photos in a phpbb forum, you must first upload them to a photo sharing site such as Flikr or Photobucket.

Step 2. Let's assume you want to display a photo with the URL of: http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j70/l ... cePalm.jpg Click on the little "Img" button above the post editing box. That will place these "tags" in your message:

Code: Select all
[img][/img]


Step 3. Insert the URL of your photo between the 2 tags, so it looks like this:

Code: Select all
[IMG]http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j70/laszlo2u/DoubleFacePalm.jpg[/IMG]


That text will result in your photo being displayed, thusly:

You can also "attach" photos to a post, but I don't know about how many or if it's forum specific or whatever.
