This should be a sticky somewhere. Very helpful with imgur mobile restrictions and such

HELP

This is as far as I can get. How can I transform this data into a visible pic? I have tried several symbols on the reply top list of icons, but nada. I followed the instruction and went to postimage, but fail to use the proper icon to translate it into a foto.

I know I am an internet dinosaur who grew up long before internet existed, but still want to learn.

Can anybody help me please?

Go to postimage.org, select your image or images (you can do more than one), then click done, then click HOTLINK for FORUMS, then paste the link in your post.

postimage.org does not work anymore, at least when I try ("bad gateway") - anyone else having issues?!

They go down once in a while, but I've never seen it last for more than an hour.

I see people confused with this often, so here's a simple tutorial.

Go to https://postimages.org/ with your browser. You do not need an account,that is 100% optional.

Click "choose images"

Browse for and select your photo. To upload multiples, tap and hold on one image, then you can select others.

It will now upload.

Image

After it uploads you will be given codes. The codes let you share your image.

There are only two codes we need to pay attention to.

1. Direct link. This links directly to your image. If you simply copy and paste it will show up as a link, like this https://i.postimg.cc/MHLQS8mw/Capture-2 ... -56-49.png

Now by using the image code brackets on the forum, we can transform the link into an embedded image:

Code: Select all

[img]https://i.postimg.cc/MHLQS8mw/Capture-2020-07-15-16-56-49.png[/img]
Using these IMG tags is how I posted the image above.

2. Alternatively, copy and paste the "thumbnail for forums" code and it will already have the image code information included. However, these pictures tend to be smaller than using direct links, and when clicked take you to a different website, so I always recommend method #1 with direct links.

Example of using method #2:

Image

Quoting this post will show you all the code used.

Using this method you will never have to resize your photos to share them here.

Here's a video of the process: https://streamable.com/bigncq
Thanks Vi!!!! Thanks for this helpful instruction. I was struggling attaching photos, and a bit ashamed to ask anyone here how. Grateful for this ;)

I just tried it from my phone Dan. It seems to be working. Try closing browser window if you are like me and keep them open for speed. Otherwise, try clearing your cache from the browser.
