Fastest way for photos from my phone to this forum


Recommended Posts

I used to used Imgur, but I HATE the app now that I've redownladed it and don't want to go there.  

 

Help a tech-challenged fellow out:  What is the fastest most efficient way to get photos from my phone linked into a post on this forum?  Ideally without having to shift from my phone to my laptop in the process.  

 

Also, I'm not a super fan of the board's own server's formatting of photos so I prefer outside services.

Imgur is a pretty good option. You can take pictures with the Imgur app, upload them through the app and make the pictures private by default if you want to, so only people with the direct link can see them.

 

Like this: https://i.imgur.com/oe0BdP4.jpg

 

Brother, I hope you don't mind, I want to see if I can embed your image directly into a post like this from an Imgur link:

Apparently, yes!  That's great, other image hosting sites I worked with don't allow this.  Will try the app myself, too.

Edit: how do I get it to show the image instead of the link?

Go to your gallery and click on the image you want to add.

 

There is a link called BBCode. Copy it and paste it in your post

It should look something like

and would yield
