You can post any image. You just need a way of uploading it to an image hosting site and then getting a link you can post here.

I often use the Windows 10 equivalent of PrtScn - Win + Shift + S. I then upload the image to postimages.org.

Neither.

The first one has been added as a link not an image so it won't work. The second has been added as an image but the URI doesn't end in .jpg or some other known photo format. Google really don't like people linking to images they host.

Have a read of this https://www.labnol.org/internet/embed-g ... ite/29194/, they are trying to push an app but the problems they describe are what you are facing.

Am I being daft? I can’t find the “pictures you’ve taken in the last month” thread…

You've linked to the page not the photo.

You need to click the share icon (a curved arrow) then pick the appropriate size, copy the link and paste that here which is what I've done for the shot above.

Right then... This is a test and please provide feedback.

Previously after a year or 2 of not posting pictures cos it seemed so complex I eventually got the hang of it. I'd host my pic in Imgur. Grab the url and bring it here. Then pop it between the two picture icons up above in the margin, and voile...

Now since getting the new phone (S23) it seems my pics might be getting hosted as a much much larger image. Even though I'm using the exact same method as before (I've had a complaint from a fellow BB brother :grin: ) it appears my method is now substandard as the pics are comeing through as too large (maybe).

Here's a few... Please share what is the easiest fix as I don't plan to make my pics posting up here even more time-taking (for me) than it is already... With all due respect and all that :lol:

Coming through in order of being taken. Some from today (last) and some from pre-complaint (more a suggestion/request to sort out my stuff as it's too much pixels). Today I've been experimenting with smaller ratios of tge camera but not sure it does much!

Todays in various ratios of the camera which won't actually tell me to choose in pixel options!

Help/advice ? :smile:

Android / Flickr.


I used to click on the curved arrow on flikr, adjust the size then copy the link to here.
Now when I click on the curved arrow on flikr, I get a list of my apps (android). :| Any tips on getting to the flikr size/link box? Thanks.
