Ron68 - seems like you're close to uploading pictures via ImgBB.  The follwoing works for me, maybe just the last part was missed.
Open IgmBB, click on “upload” (top right), a window pops up, click on “browse from your computer”, go back to the image you want to post, left click on the image, click on the ‘open’ button, image will upload to ImgBB. 
Then, in ImgBB, right click on the image to transfer, on the pop-up window appears, click ‘copy image address’; then go to MS post (or reply), click on the 'image' icon provided in the header, click to paste the URL number in the space provided; uploaded picture will appear in the post.

This works for me.

I tried all that Bob, but no joy. Spent half an hour trying to duplicate your instructions and results, but to no avail. I wasn't getting the pop up instructions that you got when I tried it . I wonder if it's my browser - Firefox? Very frustrating.......

Ron68 - so you were able to upload the photo to ImgBB? 
And the photo should upload to an album, or "images", that you created in IgmBB ... maybe I left that part out. 
I don't know enough about compter to offer any assistance. 

I did that, and tried to post a picture. It did post, but it was HUGE. I tried to reload the picture so that I could edit it down. Once I got it smaller, it wouldn't post. Again, very frustrating. Too many steps, too complicated, none of the windows opened had any links to click on to simply post the picture. Why do sites like Facebook, Craigslist, etc allow pictures posted (and automatically sized to optimum) with just a couple of clicks, while our current system is so difficult to work with?

I initially did have the same problem with the picture being huge.  I know I corrected it, but I don't remember how I did it.  I'll keep researching my memory and will let you know if I figure it out.
