Use a picture hosting site like photbucket. Once you upload them there, you can copy and paste the img code and post them. I'm not sure about the posting limit though.

You can upload a total of 10 attachments per post. This is a global option and can't be customized per user/usergroup. However, you can have a total of 40 IMG tags per post. This means that if you have the images remotely hosted, you can post a total of 40 images per post via embedding them through hotlinking.

When you use the Attachment feature, it does create thumbnails. However, you can still post larger pictures by hotlinking to those thumbnails.

When you upload an image(s), and you then see the filenames of the uploaded image(s) as seen in this step:


You can right-click on those filenames to get the URL/Address. Copy the URL/Address and place it inside a set of [img][/img] tag. That way, the image will be displayed in the post at a normal size, as well as a thumbnail attachment.
