How can I effectively use images and equations in my online science forum posts?

Hi, a friend told me about this site and am anxious to try it out. I think it's great that you help students understand the materials by making them realize it instead of telling them. Great to be here and looking forward to our time together.. :-)

Sure sure, no theories's of everything from me.. Is there any special way you post diagrams? LaTex for equations i see.

You can post an image file (see the landscape icon) when writing your post in post editor.

We don't like it when full problems are posted out of a book or worksheet that way though.

We prefer to see your work and the Latex you used for your equations which helps us in formulating our responses.

Also we prefer each question/problem gets its own thread and if homework in the homework forums. When there are multiple questions then the thread gets all entangled and confusion reigns.
