there's no program for that. you can either click the Attach Files button and upload a pic from your phone/computer, and that will only show as a link to open or download, or, if the pic is on the net, you can use the 'image' icon on the menu bar along the top of the composition area (the 'square' to the left of the palette color icon), and put in the link to the pic, then it will SHOW in the post.
be aware that hyperlinking like that is 'hotlinking' and uses the other site's bandwidth to supply the image, and many frown on that, and some don't care. if the pic is in the CPG database, no problem linking to it. If you right click on the bigger image that pops up, and choose 'view image' or 'copy image location' (may depend on what your browser offers), you use that URL for the image link here, so it will show just that image in your post vs. it going to the regular CPG listing. Some image storing sites let you hotlink from pics in your account, others don't, but that's another option.
hope that's clear enough.
