Title: Posting images.
Post by: Kev Murphy on December 20, 2019, 01:40:07 AM
Posting images.

Some people have had trouble with posting images for others to see. I use https://imgbb.com/ ...  free service, just drag and drop your pix, and use embed codes / bb code Full, to post to the forum. Code starts with/ends with "Img" in brackets, as shown in pic below.
Just click on the 'COPY' link button, and paste to the forum. Too easy.

I use http://imghostr.net/, (http://imghostr.net/,) also fairly straightforward and easy. Same way of using the BB code. Supporting an Aussie site.

The only problem is having to upload the image from your source, then copying the code (under embed). Would be great if the forum would allow a direct embed of an image.

If you want to post the same pic at a later date, click on the pic in your album, it will open. If you then double click on the pic when it displays, it will show the embed code link below the image, open that and you can then select the BBCODE to post to another forum.

Doubleclick on the browser back-arrow to return to your album, to post more pix.

Can also select embed codes from popup which appears when you mouse over each picture in your album.

Hope this helps, folks.
Cheers, Kev
