Not sure I totally understand your question here. Uploading photos directly from your computer is simple and straight forward if that is what you are referring to. That is the way most of the post with embedded photos are done. These are the photos that you click on to enlarge. If you need any assistance in using the direct upload there is a guide on the Barn or a lot of folks willing to answer questions.
Here are some screenshots of the process. Under EDIT select GO ADVANCED and the shown screen pops up. On the advanced screen click on the down arrow next to the paperclip (there are other ways to do this, but this is the method I use most of the time) and the MANAGE ATTACHMENTS screen pops up. Select BROWSE and locate the photo file you want to upload on your computer and select it (be sure it is within the size requirements listed). Then select UPLOAD and wait for the file to upload. Then just select SAVE on the original edit page.
A lot of photos are too large a format to upload this way and need to be resized to less than around 558.9 KB for a jpg. I use Microsoft Photo Editor to do this, but there are other methods.
