Here was the advice I got from Kinghunter when I did my first AAR :

Here are the steps to post an image

I did this for my AAR, and it works, you will need to get an account with a PHOTO Image share website [PISW] (I use PHOTO BUCKET {http://photobucket.com/})

1) Get a screen shot (ALT-Print Scrn Button) of the game screen.

2) Open Paint (Or any Photo Editor) and Paste the Image

3) Save the file as a .JPG file in the editor, and store it in a folder.

4) Post the image to your PISW account.

5) find the URL of that image.

6) Paste the Url in an IMG Tag, as noted below - then submit the AAR entry.

I suggest a website called Skitch to save a few steps. You can download a program from Skitch that will do the screenshot for you and upload it in one step, and then gives you a URL for the photo. You can use Skitch to take only selected parts of your screen, and you can use it for some limited editing after you grab the image.
