Adding picture to post

Sorry but I have tried to add a picture to my first post and can not do it. I uploaded 2 pics and see them under my profile. The instructions I found say to copy the text in the box below the thumbnail and paste it in the post. The text below in the box extends beyond the box so I clicked where it says show text and that brings up the text from both pics along with some other text. When I try to copy the individual pictures text, it highlights all the text to copy. Tried pasting this to the post and it doesn’t,t seem to work. Can you see your post with pictures before submitting it? Thanks for any help, I,ve spent a few hours trying to do this and can not figure it out.

Ugh, how frustrating, I'm so sorry about that! You did everything right, the interface for uploading pictures is just terribly outdated and confusing and badly in need of an overhaul.
It sounds like you actually did go through the correct steps, but you may have gotten a little tripped up along the way:

You can click the small text box below the image which contains the code, and it will be automatically copied when you click on it. It doesn't matter that it extends beyond the box, you just need to click or tap on the box once so the code highlights and you'll see a small "Copied" tip pop up briefly. The "show text" option is for inserting multiple pictures at once.

It sounds like you did this correctly and I'm not sure why it didn't work when you tried pasting it into a post. Could you please reply to me and try to include an image following those same steps and I'll see if I can figure out what the problem is?

Thanks for the help Ythan. I was able to post the pics with your help by just clicking on the box below the pic which copied it. I still had to go out of that and come back to post another pic but I got it. I really appreciate the knowledge and help on this forum. Peace.
