Title: Up loading photos on Susan's
Post by: coldHeart on November 20, 2017, 06:17:34 PM
No doubt this has been posted in the past but seeing as I'm slow I,all ask again.
How do I upload photos on to Susan's, I know I have to use a different site for that ? but not really sure, started to feel more happier about my self so thought why not post a before & after photo.

I think that the only photo you can upload to the site is your avatar photo.  All others have to be hosted elsewhere; you post the link and the photo will show up.

You can use the Gallery and copy the links from there.  :)

There are many photo hosting services.  Some offer a small amount of storage space for free (usually 2 to 5 gb), and charge if you need additional storage space. 

I use DropBox.  I find it works great for general file storage, but for photos you need to manually edit their links.  Every DropBox photo link ends with a "...DL=0"  which needs to be edited to end with  "RAW=1"  so the photo will download to the local web browser. 

Seeing Ashely's post I just checked and it seems Flickr offers a huge amount of photo storage for free, 1TB.  Hmm... maybe I need to switch.

Beware that it will be visible on the Internet, if you're not 'out' yet.

Otherwise, go right ahead [emoji4]
