    Default How do I add pictures to my classifieds post.

    I am new to this forum and I cannot figure out how to add pictures of the item I am selling to my classifieds post. The insert image button does not seem to do anything. Will somebody be kind enough to educate me on how to add a picture to my classifieds post? Thanks.

    There's a couple ways, but what I find easiest is to go to postimage.org (https://postimages.org/)

    Upload the pic there and copy the link from it, then open the insert image tab here and paste the link. That's the way I usually do it.

    I've been having issues with the forum picture upload commands as well. Go through the motions, but no pictures are being uploaded.

    I hate those third party hosting sites, but might have to go back to one.

    Picture file size is probably too big.

    Image button does nothing at all?

    I've heard that pics need to be under 1Meg but mine are always a lot smaller than that.

    I upload to flickr, make it public instead of private, hit the share icon in photostream,, highlight the link, copy it and paste it in my post.

    Alright, just did this one in about 30 seconds using my method. Went to postimage, clicked "upload pic" and just chose a random image for this. Once it up loads, click on "direct link". Come here and click on the "insert image" icon. Switch to "from url" and paste the link. Be sure to uncheck the box at the bottom that asks you to "store locally.".

    That's the easiest way I can figure it and it works from my phone, that way I can take the pic and upload right from there, instead of having to download it to my computer first.

    Thank you all for your replies. It appears I will need to use a third party web site. I will give that a try. Thanks again.

    Using postimage as suggested by R L Suehr worked. Thanks to all and especially to R L Suehr.
