No photo bucket or host needed...........................

Easier way to post pictures from your computer.

You can change your "Setting" (upper right corner) to use the WYSIWYG editor which allows you to more quickly upload pics.

Go to: "Setting" (upper right corner)
Click on "General Settings" (left side, middle of My Settings box)
Go to bottom of page and select:
Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing
Then after you have changed your settings here is what you do ,go make a post......at the upper left of your post window there are some icons run your curser over them the square looking one should say Insert Image

1. Click on Insert Image
2.Click on Select File
3.This will take you to your computer files....go to your Picture files.
4.Select your picture
5. Click Open
6.Click Upload File
7.After pic uploads Click on Post Quick Reply

That is how I have been doing it that way for a few months now. You are right it is easier. I also used tap talk a few times and it saves me from having to email the pictures to my computer from phone.

This is the easiest way for me too.

Sounds fairly easy.. I always use photobucket.. I have the app on my phone and when i take pics, it holds them until I get home and connect to my wifi. when it connects, it automatically uploads the pics to photobucket's page. I open the page and click on the pic I want, then click the img link to copy it.... One of the main reasons that I use this way is because years ago, the c.c database was getting overloaded because it was storing all the pics that were being uploaded to the site and By using an offsite picture host, it didn't have to store them, it just hyperlinked to the offsite pic and it still showed up in the post. Basically, it lets another website carry the load of the pics while allowing you to view them here.

The C.C data base and server is big enough now to handle all you got. Problem with photobucket is your pictures will disappear after awhile.

Also if using your phone if you use Tapatalk or Forum Runner you can post your pics straight off of your phone as a attachment and use this forum as the host.
