I uploaded the pictures, then I previewed the post and opened the pictures to view them,the I took the address for those pictures, clicked on the 'Insert image' button, chose to insert from a URL unchecked "Retrieve remote file and reference locally"
What that did was to give me the address to the picture (http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/attachments/projects/312678d1365687655-building-stick-frame-house-woods-imag0112.jpg for the big one) wrapped in [IMG] and [/IMG] tags like this:

Aaron,
Thanks.... That's a bunch of clickin' to repeat the original upload clickin' to get a full size embedded version.
Or in Chrome you could just right click on the thumbnail and get the address a number of ways and enter it as you said.
Either way, you would then have to go back and delete the original post with the thumb nailed attachments.
That would be wearing out my clicker instead of Jay's.
He's a lot younger than me, so he should have a lot of clicks left.
I appreciate you showing a method though. I think when TBN made the upgrade a few months ago, the ability to actually
embed an image in a post, straight away, using TBN as the server went south...
For the few pictures that I post, on occasion, I'll stick with the attachment method and let the folks decide if they are worth the effort to them to open in another browser tab or save.
