How can I submit a question with a picture?

The only way I can think of is to attach the picture through its URL link under "Add related Links," and to point out that there is a link. For example, for the Question "What geographical feature is this?" - you would attach its photo as a related link via the photo's URL, and you would submit the Question as "What geographical feature is this - see photo in attached link?"

What is difference between Transport layer and data link layer?

The data link layer handles communication between systems on the same local network. The network layer handles communication between systems on different local networks and allows those packets to be routed between the two. The data link layer would allow two machine on network a to talk to each other or two machines on network b to talk to each other. This communication takes place using the physical/MAC addresses of the machines. The network layer is what allows a machine on network a to talk to a machine on network b using logical address like IP addresses.
