I am copy/pasting from a reply I gave to an identical forum question yesterday:

inline module: Very simple, you just type a tag in the text after
uploading the image as an attachment. No browsing of existing images.
http://drupal.org/project/inline

image module + img_assist module: Good for organizing your images in
galleries (images become nodes), with thumbnails etc, but not very
quick if you don't need that.
http://drupal.org/project/image
http://drupal.org/project/img_assist (this one actually places the image)

IMCE module: For easy uploading and placing and for browsing already
uploaded image directories. Works well with TinyMCE.
http://drupal.org/project/imce

CCK + imagefield: The uploaded image is placed at a predefined place
on the post. It may require some theming before it works right.
http://drupal.org/project/cck
http://drupal.org/project/imagefield
http://drupal.org/project/imagecache
