Now, as for exactly how much time that gives you—I don't have the precise number memorized off the top of my head, but I'm thinking it's about half an hour or so. The admins will definitely know the exact window.
Thanks so much! I read somewhere else that it might be 300 minutes (so, like 5 hours). Looking at this thread, I honestly thought there might be some kind of Chrome extension that could let me bypass that limit once the 5 hours were up. But hey, I don't want to make things more complicated than they need to be. Thanks again!

What velvetgull9 mentioned regarding the timeframe... usually, you have about 5 hours before the option disappears (at least that's how it used to work).
As for adding images, you actually have to upload them to the web first. You can't just attach a file directly from your hard drive to the Reddit; you have to host it on an image-hosting site first (something like Imgur).
Thank you so much, amberorca192 🙂. That is incredibly kind of you 🙂. I've gone through a few different threads about uploading images, and everything makes total sense now. Thanks again! 🙂
P.S.
Check your PM.
