When you make a post reply there is a Browse button to add a image file. Currently one cannot add a image in the first post of thread.

Note that the FlashFox Android app is not a Mozilla product or project as they only make Firefox for Android.

Also some news sites have since lately made it so you need to upgrade Flash even to point of 11.7 so as a result the Android and PlayBook users can out of luck. Also the old Flash 11.1 plugin no longer works on Android as of 4.4 due to some needed things being removed on KitKat.
