What is the best way to manage the graphics for this? I see this guy in particular is attaching the image directly to the board. is there a way to export a "screenshot" of the screen in your game to the forum? or do you need to get an image capture program like SnagIt, manage this images in a folder and attach them from there?
If there's a direct export function from the game to a forum post, I haven't found it yet. Please help?

Well I know from asking Gehrig38 if he was still using Paint as his graphics are a lot more elaborate at this point, and he still does.
As far as screenshotting, I just use print-screen and then CTRL-V into Paint. I then resize mine to 75% instead of 100% to fit. I have Photoshop and GIMP as well, but they are really unnecessary for most things you would do, at least in my opinion.
For stuff that is bigger than one screen, I open to an external browser. I use Mozilla Firefox and they have a plugin called ScreenGrab which allows you to take a shot of an entire webpage. That's how I do 48 teams worth of standings in one image. The ScreenGrab plugin is free, and its invaluable when you have to go a bit bigger on a report.
