Posting a Picture, how do I do it?

[Paul1944]

I would like to post a picture along with my text but cannot figure out how to do it, will you help please?

I used to know how to do this, but I forgot....

What I did was I added a short cut of that link to my desktop and placed it in the upper right of the desktop. Then I put an empty folder under the Imgur shortcut in which I put the photos I wish to post.

Then it's two clicks to open Imgur and see the photos I wish to drag and drop.

My memory is short and my dyslexia long so it is easier for me.

This worked great, very easy, thank you very much.

The photo posting link reduces pics to the maximum permitted size for posting, but the size can easily be adjusted smaller if desired. Just add a "width=nnn" argument (without quotes) between the link and the closing IMG tag.

Width=350


Width=450


Default width

Full instructions are located here on the forum, in the FORUM POSTING HELP section, and the recommended method is very simple and easy. Just to help, I have copied the info and posted it here for you.

Easy Photo Upload & Posting Web App! (1492)
A fast and easy way to include a photo in a forum post. Just drag-n-drop a photo, and copy-n-paste the image link in your message post. Uploads photos directly to IMGUR.com servers. Automatically resizes photos to the max recommended by the Open Roads Forum. Includes a thumbnail preview, and also provides an optional link to permanently delete the photo. The WebApp is available at http://photoposting.is-great.net (Updated 10/03/2016).

I use IMGUR here for my posting engine... I can add photos to IMGUR and it assigns the HTTPS required address and is pretty much click click... I use the WIN10 snipping tool to copy and move photos to my IMGUR folder... Then I can select the photo and add to the various forums using their image form.

After you play around with it it becomes very easy to use... It is also a FREE photo program to use...

This is my setup in Wichita Mtns Wildlife Refuge in Medicine Park, OKLA..

I have used it for a while now but, unless I'm mistaken, it seems like a link that is not placed in front of potential users at the time of need with a meaningful label, but instead a secret link that is only passed down to the next generation when someone asks.

Maybe in a sticky, but I put it on my tool bar and also added it as a favorite.
