KyleR Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) I'm sure this has been covered at some point, but we all know how great searching is here... Posting from a hosting site is fine, but how do we post from another website? Surely I don't have to save the image then upload it to my Photobucket account when it's obviously hosted elsewhere? So how do I get hold of the embeddable link from website X and post it on Y forum? Edited February 15, 2015 by KyleR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjf1985 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) Not sure if that pic you're trying will work but usually in your browser just right click the image you want to copy and choose "copy image location" or "image URL" then paste the address here after selecting the image feature here (refer to octet's previous post for this part) Edited February 15, 2015 by pjf1985 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleR Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 Question is: Why is the ' in the title?

choptop Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Although I have been on the site for many years now I rarely put up any photos. Is there a way we can look at easily adding photos to posts/threads (like on Facebook Messenger) as a future development for the website?

Adrian@TORQEN Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 The website will require more hosting space, the backup will be a lot larger and it will take a lot more to be done, unless they've done manually to exclude the media folders. I don't see this happening, but the admins will reply with their opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoogyRev Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 What Adrian said ^ Don't forget everyone.... This is a FREE forum, the only way the additional space for all your photos to be stored would be to make you pay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian@TORQEN Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 If it was on my server I'd do it for free, but I'm not responsible for that so Admins will have final word 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
