Copying this from the Landroval's forum. Ophelia posted it on the site there. I find it quite useful since I've been wondering how to do it. The one thing I'm still clueless on yet is resizing the pics down to 800 pixels:
Here's a step-by-step guide to taking and posting screenshots using the free image hosting website from Photobucket. There are several free hosting sites out there for you to pick from, this one just happens to be the one I use.
Take a Screenshot using "F11"
If you would like to turn off your user inface, you can hit "F12" to have a clean screen.
You can find your screenshots in the My Documents/The Lord of the Rings Online folder.
Optional: Edit your image so it is of an appropriate size. (Generally no more than 800 pixels wide.)*
Go to www.photobucket.com and sign up for a free membership.
Once logged into the site, you are able to create folders/directories to help keep your images organized.
To upload images to this website, simply clike on the "My Albums" tab and then once there, hit the "browse" button and select the location of your image you would like to upload.

Once the image is uploaded, you are able to then just copy and paste the image tag code directly to the lotro forum's website.
If you see in the image below, the last code is the exact format you need to post images here.
