You can "link" a picture from a website somewhere.
You can't attach an image, but you can insert one if you have it stored somewhere else on the Internet (like PhotoBucket or Picasa web albums). I use Picasa, although it's not as convenient to get the link to the actual pic.
Once you have the link to the image, you can insert it either by using the "Insert Image" button at the top of the message or by manually using the IMG tags. Replace the round brackets with square brackets and insert your link:
(IMG)YourLink(/IMG)
Notice that there is no "Attached Image (viewed xx times)" message with this image, and I can still continue to type below the image. You can also add multiple images to posts and PMs in this way, but you have to upload it to some other site first.

Hiya guys,
It's simple to do. Type
![b] before the web address of the location and then [b]](http://[/b] before the web address of the location and then [b])
at the end.
![b]](http://[b]hosted location address[/b])
Hosted location address = http://www.nutshelltravel.com/fishing/Web%20Images/Rigs/Mustad%20Tuna%20Sports%20Circle%20(Small).jpg
The Result:

This can be done in a 'quote', 'reply' or 'PM'
Some web sites, like Sealine, will not allow external links to their images. In such cases you would be required to save the image to a hosted site of your own or a web service like PhotoBucket.
