PICTURE POSTING INSTRUCTIONS

IF you are having problems, try this....
It may work for you if if you sign up with free account at Imgur.com....
... I know of other users that are all of a sudden having problems with pictures being posted and showing up on their posts.......
Signing up with the free account seemed to solve their problems when attaching images to the forums and private messages.  It seems from my investigation that "free" membership is NOW required to get the proper LINK codes for you pictures that you want to embed here on the Forums.

***NOTE:  By the way, when you have the free Imgur.com account you can control and delete your photos at a later time from showing up on the Forums posts and anywhere else that you post them.

Please let me know if this works for you or if not!!!   I have further suggestions that could solve future issues.

How do I get the picture to appear in the post and not just a link? From my phone?

I've had my best luck using Tapatalk on my smartphone. It lets me insert a photo directly into my post -- there's a button right below the text. No need to go put it on some other site.

I have used flickr.com during the past several years to insert photos in any post at susans.com.

I'm not using a phone. I always get on here with a desktop PC. I cannot find a button in Susan's gallery section where it allows me to upload a picture.
