As SW said you have to upload the picture to a file hosting site first.

You can also upload it to the CJ server by clicking the add attachments button when you are in the advanced post editor.

In 1971 the University of Sheffield housed its IBM computer all down one side of the Hicks Building. It was less powerful than a pocket calculator is now. Now that must be 50 metres of floor space maybe 8 metres wide!

Its replacement? They built a block across the road to house that. By the late eighties a PC was more powerful.
