HowTo: Post Photos

I'm impressed... how did you do that?!

Actually, there's a more simple way to get the correct *.jpeg URL address than digging in the browser.
Just:

1. Go to https://imgur.com/a/KYEwD61
   
2. Click on the image to get a bigger version
   
3. Right-click on the bigger image and copy the image adress
   
   

That's all :)

cheers @Dcls : )

Posting pictures from Firefox seems to be working better than it has in aaaaaages

No need to select multiple images twice

Test 3

For your first test, with the URL https://flic.kr/p/2mjxuen that redirects to https://www.flickr.com/photos/193787043@N02/51405668271/...

From there, for instance :

• click on the bottom-right button to download the image
  
• click "View all sizes"
  
• choose your size
  
• right-click on the image
  
• click 'copy the image address' (that might depends on your brower)
  
  

Now you have the image address, just insert it jusing the "Image" button here when you post a new message.

Result:

,

Has been working for me for desktop Firefox for a while now. Not Firefox on Android, though.

@Velocio if there are images posted on another site I want to put into a thread, would you rather I upload the image to the forum, or deeplink them from the other site? From a hoisting POV I'd assume deep link but I don't know if there is an etiquette with other sites to re-upload rather than use their bandwidth you'd rather I (we) keep to

edit: oh read the first fucking post: upload is preferred

Entirely up to you.

If the image isn't valuable (you don't care if it breaks in 5 years) and you don't own the copyright... embedding is best.

If the image is valuable (i.e. a classifieds as it reflects provenance of past sales and the condition at that time) and you own the copyright (you took it)... attaching is best.

But largely I don't mind what you do.

Nine months later...

Thanks @Dcls

Aha, you're welcome!

I can see in the HTML that you tried to insert an image with a link from Google Photos.
Unfortunately it won't work.
Easiest solution: Download the photo from Google Photos and upload it here.
