Have it scanned from paper to a Large JPEG file.

If you created this plan on your computer, save it as a JPEG.. very common picture file.

Go to a free hosting site like Photobucket, create an account.

Log into the new account after verifying via email that you actually created it.

Upload to Photobucket (Or any other free hosting site)

You will be presented links to that image.

One of those links (On Photobucket) is "Direct" copy and paste to this forum when you post the plan.

Make sure that you insert a space between the new link you posted and the left side of the forum write box. This makes the link live and clickable.

The best images are those where the visitors go to your photobucket (Or other site) and view your image there. There are a few that come up within trains.com in a very small viewing area that really does not work well.
