You can drag and drop files from your file system onto a step in ScreenSteps. When you drag an image over the step title, instructions or existing image a prompt will appear telling you that the image will be attached to the step.
Option 2: Use the Menu or Contextual Menu

Can you insert a screen shot into step text? Sometimes I like to shoot a command button and have it appear in line with the text when I refer to it.

@Val - no, you cannot insert images into the text at this time.
