    Default Mobile Users: I'm turning off Tapatalk Hosted Images.


    This is an FYI. I will soon (later today) be turning off Tapatalk Hosted Images.

    Tapatalk is a mobile/smart phone forum application used to access Crappie.com. When you upload photos using Tapatalk, you should have two options. One for "Tapatalk Hosted", and one for "This Forum". Use "this forum", not "tapatalk hosted". Well, once I change the option you may not see the Tapatalk Hosted option anyway.

    Why am I changing this. For two reasons. All the sudden Tapatalk Hosted images now have a little icon in the bottom left of the image. It's the Tapatalk Icon. We don't need Tapatalk modifying our images and sticking Tapatalk ads on every image.

    And the big reason is, if anything ever happens to tapatalk, the forum will loose a ton of images. Posts will not make sense because the image is gone. This has already happened with other photo sharing sites that make changes, and then the images here are gone. And there's no reason not to stare them here on crappie.com. Space is cheap, and we want to keep our images right where they belong, with our forum, not on some third party server.

    I'm telling you all just in case there's problems, and so if you see the change you understand what happened. I'll wait for responses here, but I'm likely to make the change around noon. Thanks everyone. Tell your friends.

    Thanks, sounds like a good idea, I've often wondered why you could post pics both ways. Now I understand it better.

    I looked into the Tapatalk when I first heard about it. Not being as "up to date" on all this technology stuff as most folks, I just decided to not fool with it and stick to what works for me. Like Feeshrman, now I understand Tapatalk a little better and why you are turning it off. No need in taking a chance of the forum losing images in the future.

    I got scared for a sec. I initially read it as just "I'm turning off Tapatalk".

    Thanks for hijacking my thread rees with a picture like that!

    And I've turned off the Tapatalk Hosted Picture option. Supposed to take up to an hour to take effect. We'll see what happens I guess.

    Thanks for letting us know Ed. Since Tapatalk had its last update I went with Forum Runner. It also has its quirks but it beats the new version of Tapatalk. To post your pic on it we should add the photo as an attachment, I think.
