Try This.
http://www.PostImage.org
click on "add image hosting to your forum".
I guess this is more in Maxs area but it operates on netrider, an Aussie based forum. its a free image hosting service that appears when you click on "post reply" and a option is provided for the sender to post 3 thumbnail images which I guess can then be enlarged by the reader. If you go to their site all will be explained. However it seems easy to use and foolproof. (well I can work it )

Easy mistake ... you needed to add the image tags, which in non-geek languageAHTHUD wrote:Did the photobucket thing and posted in members rides. The picture dont show on the post only the link (which opens if you click on it). What have i cocked up
means....you needed to add [ img ] and [/ img ] at either end of the link (without the spaces
http://i916.photobucket.com/albums/ad3/ ... CN2250.jpg
should be
[ img ]http://i916.photobucket.com/albums/ad3/ ... CN2250.jpg[ /img ]
Easy way to do it is to put the link in your post, then highlight the whole link and click on the "Img" button just about where you're typing, that automatically adds the image on/image off tags. To check if it's worked ok just click on Preview and you'll see what your post will look like.
The same theory applies to quoting someone ... make sure the Quote tags are in place
Geek hat off now ... phew

I believe "Tapatalk" will post photos directly from your smart phone.jjmoto wrote:Is there an easy way (for simpletons) to post pictures from a smartphone (Samsung )
You can also get a photobucket app but apparently it has a lot of scam ads, and if you put ad blockers in it makes you sign in every time you change pages.(apparently.)
