I think it is a myth. No offense to people concerned.

It depends, if the picture illustrates the post it is important, to add a picture that has nothing to do with the post makes no sense in my opinion.

@DaddyEvil - I can attach a nice photo that is not personal if it has something to do with the discussion. I do not think I ever posted without adding a photo.

@LadyDuck I attach things like my back yard if I don't have a picture pertinent to the discussion. I love looking at the trees and grass in my back yard.

Once in a while I'll attach a nice photo that has nothing to do with the discussion, just because. *shrug*

It's a nice addition to the post, but not always necessary. Most of the time I don't attach a photo

I sometimes attach a photo but it is such a hassle here that I don't often. They are always too big or too small or whatever. I use photos to let others know what I am talking about, ie, here is my cat, what is this mess on my laptop?, etc.

@akalinus I agree with the resizing of the photos. If I am using my laptop or desktop, it is fine to deal with photos to be edited than using my mobile phone.

I always have to reduce the size of my photos. The camera on my phone is a good one and makes nice photos. (I just use "Paint" on my laptop to reduce the photo size.)

I also prefer photos. I felt the discussion is complete with it.

sometimes pictures can mean a language that can't be used with just words.

I often include pictures as a way of saying, 'See what I'm talking about?' (using either a diagram or a picture of the person/incident I'm discussing)---possibly based on the way I- and many other readers-learned to read ...

I don't necessarily attach a picture with a post. Many times I have posted a post without a picture and have got lots of responses on them. I don't think it's true. You need to have an interesting topic and the content to attract people's attention here.

I prefer to put pictures on my posts as well but my pictures aren't always about the content of a post.

On contrary, I need to post photos related to my discussions as much as possible.

I like to add a photo when I can, but it's not really necessary.

I agree that it is not necessary. In my book, I felt content with a photo that goes along with the composition.

I haven't attached pictures to my posts mostly because Im not sure how to. I usually go by the title rather than a picture but I do think pictures add something to the post

You have a point. Most of us are adults here and we can understand the compositions' main ideas. For some young learners, having images can bring life to their imaginations.
