No, if the pic is from your local machine, you need to use the Attachment feature and select the file from your computer.

Or you get a free account and could upload the image to a free online photo place like photobucket. 
http://photobucket.com/

Then pull the image from there to display in full size and save folks from having to click on the attachment.

Like So...

It is preferred you use a third party host for images -- like imgshack, photobucket, etc...

By using an external image host and the [img][/img] tags to embed the image in their post.
