On Tenforums you can use the paper clip to attach images or files that were used on other threads on the forum.
As you normally use the same attachments on different threads, the paper clip (attachment manager) was a very clever procedure. It allow the user to have a library with many folders and use same attachments on many threads.
Was also good for the site as you didn't have same attachment uploaded to the server saving a lot of drive space.
Why don't you have the paper clip on this forum?

But if there's a way to "use" those pics in a post, I don't know of it.
And it does "save" s copy of the pic every different time you post it.

Test...
From the pics in the YELLOW box location, I right clicked on a pic and chose: Copy Link
Let's see what that does...
I used the "picture" icon at the top of this post and pasted the URL of the pic from the YELLOW box location.

view



Me... I just keep my own library of pics on my own computer, and use the Attach button at the bottom of the post, to browse to w/e pic I want in MY library of pics.
I use XnView's thumbnails view on my comp to find the pic I need for the post.
Like here are my Tech Pics...

I use this method for ALL forums. However the forum method changes, my method stays the same.

Ghot,​

I have seen the attachments under my profile.
I just didn't find a way to use them on another threads.
BTW, I don't know why John didn't use the Tenforums site templates on Elevenforum (It successfully did on Sevenforums).
I don't like the Elevenforum GUI skin. Tenforums GUI skin is the best.

Even on Ten Forums I use my XnView method. (In XnView, I can change the size of the thumbnails)
Whether the forum lets me drag and drop a pic to a post, or makes me click a button and browse, or even if I have to use an image hosting site... my method stays the same.


One thing I definitely like about this forum... is the SPOILER thingy.

Like this

On Eleven Forum, I like WEF2021 Dark style, and on Ten Forums I use... TF2022 [Default]

The software the Seven and Ten runs on was discontinued over a decade ago, it doesn't fully support modern browsers or server software and is only ever a server, browser or Google update away from breaking, whereas Eleven runs on modern supported forum software which will be very actively developed for years to come.

Thanks John.
So it's a technical impose.
Can't you make it a little more similar to Tenforums?
