You need to upload the photo somewhere the user can access it online. TinyPic and Photobucket are viable options. Then you can simply give the user the URL to where you have it on tinypic or photobucket. (You may want to register for tinypic.com for the additional features.) If you already have preferred webspace, you can upload it there.

If you plan to put it in a sig, the BB Code to do so is:

[img]URL[/img]

For example, if your URL is http://i37.tinypic.com/nfsfev.jpg (just a random tinypic image I pulled for this example), the BB Code would be

[img]http://i37.tinypic.com/nfsfev.jpg...

If you happen to already know each other's email addresses, you can also send the images through email. You'll need to upload them somewhere else if you want to put them in your sig though.
