How to add photos to forum posts

[Dumm_Lummox]

Whats the easiest method or website you use? What are the common issues?

I was trying to use TINYPIC but not working for me yet

Imgur does not require a login. It is a public photo repository and it is free. I'm not sure how this would be "secure". You post your photo and you link to it from here, but anyone could view it if they knew the URL.

I'm not sure I'd be too worried about an 'insecure' photo site. I'm more concerned about free sites.

Medical pot in travel trailers. Photo posting in Tech issues. This is a strange place sometimes.

In addition to providing a repository for images posted on the forum, the photo posting app graciously provided (for free) by moderator 1492 resizes pix to the forum suggested width of 640 pixels. Moderators spend more than a few minutes everyday fixing the width on pics that drive the text in the posts off the screen. This requires the mod to following the link, download the pic to their own computer and repost the pic.

And kknowlton is correct. You should use a secure connection.

Just went to those links and found that Imgur is not listed as "secure." Does that trouble anyone, or is there a way to log on to a secure form of Imgur?

I used to use Photobucket but since they started charging, deleted my photos from there.

I use IMGUR here... This is a free to use photo server... I use the Window 10 SNIP tool to capture pictures from on-line and other sources and then save those to IMGUR... This adds the HTTPS URL address to the photo and it has several different basic sizes that helps...

It is almost CLICK CLICK to add to any of the RV Forums using their image formats... I moved to this site when PHOTOSHOP dropped all of us users a few years back...

Searching around I found these instructions:

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).
