Thanks to Jason for posting this in a mod staff room. I thought others might like to know how to do them, and with his permission via flourbug, I'm copying his post here.

find an image you want to post, and save it to your local computer. when making a post, make sure you're in the 'advanced' section instead of the quick reply.

in the advanced post, at the bottom you will see an upload link. click it, upload your images, then hit save for the post. All the images are then stored on the server and a thumbnail created.

here's the vb faq on image uploading:

the new thumbnails work really well. they are inline (doesn't open a new browser window) and you can hit 'next' to view all the attached thumbs.
