At the bottom below where you type your message, click on "Click or drag files here to attach them."

Then your picture files will open, so search for the picture you want and double click on the picture you want and  You will see the picture then.

Not sure what accents to put in here , any wild ideas?

Wish that dark streak woulda been 3/4" to the right, you can see the pencil outline of riser.

It may end up in the throat of the grip so that will be cool too...
