<b>Step 1:</b>
When posting a new thread or replying to a message you'll notice the following below the "post message", "preview" & "cancel" buttons.

<b>Step 2:</b>
After clicking on the "Attach Files(s)" button you'll notice the following popup box

<b>Step 3:</b>

That's all there is to it! Now just submit your message and the file will be attached to it for everyone to view/download.

The system does allow you to attach multiple files at one time, if you wish to attach multiple fies, just repeat steps 2 through 5 before completing step 6.
