this is my attempt to post a problem with some instructions on one of the ways to do it.

..from Backgammon problems(look/click above) i have chosen "post new poll from top right",
then opened gnubg and taken a snapshot/screenshot of the position/cropped it and saved it as a png..(others export from gnubg)

..then chose additional options (at the bottom of the posting area - click the +) and uploaded png (under 40 Kb) from my computer..

9 point master's lg match, black on roll 5-2 ahead (click pic to enlarge)

Spoiler
double/take.......but it's always strange to double with one of your merry men on the bar, which often encourages a take!
