Pretty simple, there’s a row of buttons along the top, one says “ Add attachment” (top left side) click on that and browse to the photo/s you want attach.
Max size 1MB
if you don’t see the buttons then click on the “ Reply” button top left , pressing “ Reply” takes you out of quick reply mode, in quick reply mode you don’t see the advanced options.
Hope that helps

1. Click in the place in your post that you want the image to go, then in the top right corner - [ADD ATTACHMENT] button... click that, then:
2. click the [+ADD FILES] button and browse to the photo you want to upload and upload it
3. wait until the blue progress bar completes and turns green - if you get an error its most likely to be "the file is too big" in which case you need to resize it
- I use Image Resizer for Windows (https://www.bricelam.net/ImageResizer/) which is an awesome stand-alone app but is now part of the Microsoft Power Toys collection (still awesome though) - but there are a lot of online image resizers as well.
- 1024 x 768 or 1366 x 768, 70% compression JPG is probably about good for here unless you are going for fine detail in which case 1920 x 1080. Image resizer does the compression for you - other programs might not.
4. Then when the file is uploaded you can click the [INSERT] button beside it in the add attachment window - it will insert a clickable thumbnail of it wherever your blinking cursor was in the post you were making
NOTE: You have to be in full REPLY mode - not QUICK REPLY
Cheers, Steve

Thanks guys. Sorry but if I go to reply in some cases the add attachment is there but in other cases it says create post
Don't want to appear like a numpty but can't see what I'm doing wrong

No idea why it wouldn't be there - it says create post in the top left when you hit reply and the [ADD ATTACHMENT] button is always over on the right for me. It could be a mobile thing? I use a computer rather than a phone for this kind of thing.
Cheers, Steve
