Usually use Imgur but how do you do it through GameFAQs?

You can't.

Seriously, new images are only hosted a few times a year, and the minimum requirements for applying are very steep. Even so, hundreds apply, but only a few are selected. If you seriously want to embed an image, you'll likely (but not always) need to have a history on GameFAQs that makes you recognizable to the majority of the user-base for several years to even be considered. Pestering the current moderators or admins to embed your image essentially guarantees that you won't be selected.

Click the picture button on the post thingy, upload the image from your pc, resize it 10 times trying to get under the size limit.

Protip: the limit claims to be 4MB, but it's actually somewhere just under 2MB.
Also the uploader will compress the hell out of your image anyway, and massacre animated GIFs.

Just see the usual bold/italic/spoiler/etc above the message space and post new message/preview message at the bottom
