A question on the Techie Forum re posting photos.

I have posted a question on the Tech Forum re the above. Perhaps one of you wizz kids could look at and advise, please.

If you wanna post pictures via phone. Use photobucket.

Thanks for your reply. I wanted to know how to post a number of photos?

Imgur is much simpler for uploading photos.

On a phone? Use the forum App - Tapatalk. It is then easy to post photos, one at a time, directly to the site servers. Or even to link to a photo album online. What device do you have and do you use Tapatalk ?

Thanks for the replies!

 

I have the photos in an Album. I am scanning them onto my desktop. PS, you mention a photo album online, is this what I can do with Photobucket? Put all the photos into an album and then put the link to the album on here? (Not sure how to do that but will look online for guideance) No idea what Tapatalk or imgur are.

Select all the picture files in windows then drop them onto the middle of this page, ('upload' pops up).

Select 'create album', and then 'start upload.'

Thanks for the link to imgur. Having uploaded the photos to an album, is it a case of copy and paste the album link on here?

I think from a quick look (never having used Imgur before) if you want a picture to axctually appear with the post you just copy the address on the right of the picture when you're in Imgur - BBCode (message boards & forums) - and then use the insert image icon on Saintsweb in the normal way.

 

Personally I find using http://www.tinypic.com much quicker and easier if you just want to post pics here - only three steps 1. browse your device for the picture 2. press upload 3. copy the address to here.
