Hi all! Its been a while. I am having problems uploading. Using Google images for photos as Photobucket has hijacked my account. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Hi, I must admit after PhotoBucket did their backtrack the only way I now upload photos to forums is via the Tapatalk app.

All of my pictures come from my phone and it’s a simple ‘add inline’ to the thread when posting.

Hopefully that makes sense.

Thanks Jimbo! I'm using a digital camera as the camera on my phone is damaged. I am using a PC also. Following previous threads on this problem google images has been mentioned, which I've tried, but cut and paste isn't working.

I'm afraid copy and paste won't work on the forum.

If your pictures are under 350kb, you can use the add attachment option at bottom left of the writing panel. If they are bigger, either re size them, or you will need to use a third party host like imgur, upload your pictures to imgur, then paste the url between the brackets you get appearing when you click on the Img button that's centre top of the writing panel.
Writing panel being where I'm writing this info before I press submit.

I use imgur to post photos and I made a video on how to do it if you need it.

phpBB [video]

This video shows how to post video from youtube, how to swipe images from other sites, and how to use imgur to post photos from your PC.

Hope that helps.
