With web, right-click on the pic, and Copy Link Address (or similar-the wording varies based on the browser. Click the little page in the tool bar above where we tip this in and paste the link in the text box at the bottom. It should input it in the text.
For phone:
I'm not sure. Let me go find my phone and try it out and I'll BRB.
ETA: So it's a PITA. Quote a post that has it in there, c&p the line including the "img" brackets (make sure copy the whole thing including the img tags on either side.) Then you can paste it wherever you want. I wish there were an easier way...

10/4 check in
Daily Goals
1. Complete planned workout - fail - went to bed early
2. Carbs within goal - no - net 30. I'm having a really hard time hitting net 20 with the amount of dairy and vegetables I eat. They're my only real carb source, so maybe I need to either up my goal or cut dairy. OK, looking at my diary I'm lying...I've been using SF international coffee mix to flavor my coffee and it's adding 8 carbs/day. Without that, I'm much closer to net 20. I will finish what I have, but not repurchase.
3. Drink 100 oz water - check
4. Log all food - check
Monthly Goals
1. Lose 8 pounds
2. No Alcohol
