Title: What's the best way to post images on the forum now?
Post by: Colorado-SHOBro on January 18, 2018, 09:29:31 PM
I can post thumbnails with photobucket but that doesn't quite cut it. I can do it on my phone via taptalk but i have an entire "how to" to write and that just seems labor intensive. Never used Imgur . . . is that the ticket now?

Any advice appreciated!

Upload to imgur, link them here.  OR upload the files to your post directly.  I upload the files directly to my posts, and then embed the links in the body of the post so you can see a "bigger" view of the image right away.  A little extra work, totally optional.

Instead of offloading from your phone via a cable etc. I upload to Facebook via the "Only Me" option for posting via my PC. I am not a huge "Power Phone User". Then download the pics to my download folder and upload to forums when needed. It sizes them, formats, and such and it is actually fast.

I have been using www.imgur.com (http://www.imgur.com) for years now and has been working flawlessly IMO especially even more since fixing almost all the PB PICS on this very fine Forum! Z  :)

DAMN YOU PB!

Simply copy the BBCode (message boards & forums) and then paste it on the image tab on the forum.  \
If your doing it from your phone might need to install the app.  Z

Thanks Z! In the long run this probably saved YOU time in the future from having to fix all my pics. . . that way you can spend more time looking at the above type of pics you have in your imgur library ;)

Glad you were able to gain access and get a sneak peek preview.  ;)
I hope imgur meets your expectations. Z  :)
