You'll need to upload your image to a hosting site like image shackWWW Link Than copy the link for the image and click on "insert image"(the little mountain icon) in the reply box and paste the url into it. Make sense?

We could be getting your question wrong batman123406.
Are you wanting to show a screenshot in a post or submitt a sreenshot for the gallery library? There's a tutorial on the WinCustomize Wiki that explains both. Check the following link. WWW Link
What Wizard1956 was explaining is for including a screenshot in a forum post. Hope this helps.

Yes, I was trying to submit my screenshot to the gallery here, but following directions from Philly0381, I still get an error from Wincustomize that says my skin file is missing.
I don't understand what that means since I am only submitting a preview screenshot and full screen shot.

Okay, here is the exact error I receive after my files have transfered during a screenshot gallery submission:
Your skin has failed to upload.
When uploading a new skin, your Skin file must also be submitted.
Who can tell me what is going on?

Did you populate all the fields?
The preview and screenshot field must both be populated (even if it's by the same file)

This is what I do.
1. Get my screen the way I want it to look.
2. I hit Print Screen.
3. Open up paint and paste the screenshot.
4. I give the screenshot a name and save it as .jpg to a file of my choice in my documents.
5. Click on submit to gallery.
6. Select Gallery.
7. Screenshots.
8. Give a name of your liking.
9. Browse to the files location and upload it.
10. You can post comments or not and then at the bottom just hit submit.
It is very simple to post a screenshot into the gallery...

Dunno if this helps, but did you try sending the skin in a zip?

When uploading a screenshot to the screenshot gallery...the same file [the actual jpg image] needs to be put in both the 'preview image' and 'screenshot file' sections of the upload window.
The small image that shows up in the gallery is generated by the site...so what you upload is the actual full-size image in both sections.
Make sure you are not trying to rename to 'jpg' a file which is in fact different, eg 'bmp'. The jpg suffix is the file type...and can only be created by the graphic proggy used [in other words not by text-edit].
Limit 'names' of upload 'files' to alpha-numeric only....no odd characters such as ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ + , etc....;)

Zubaz, thank you very much!
The second link you gave me worked fine. Perhaps there would be more great screenshots
from people if they could upload them from the main page.
If anyone knows the Webmaster of this site, please drop him a note concerning the problem
I had.
Thanks to everyone for your time in helping me!!!!
