I’d like to add that the linked pictures shouldn’t be too large in size.
Sometimes you get a post with many pictures with many pixels, which takes a looong time to load.
There’s really little point in exceeding 1000 pixels in width anyway.
Just wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU! I appreciate the time to make it simple for those of us that are “ok” with technology…but not savvy. Savvy??? (movie reference there i think).
Can we not use other image sources really annoying you have to sign up etc for something else just to post an image… for instance could we not use flickr?
I’m quite sure there are more roads than this one that leads to Rome.
Perhaps you care to join with us when you have figured those out.
For the moment me, myself, and I are very happy with Imgur
It is fast as lightning compared to Photo(.)ucket, where you have to pay to receive pop-up’s.
Thank you Raccoon, (also) in the name of the silent majority.
Thanks for the info, racoon city. I was just trying to post my 1st picture on BLF using my free Photobucket account which I’ve had for several years and which has always worked fine for posting pictures in forums. Unfortunately, it seems that STUPID Photobucket has changed their policies and they now watermark pictures with a big, unsightly Photobucket watermark if you have their free account and not a paid one. Had to delete the photo because the friggin watermark is huge and covered a key element of the photo. I’ll for sure need to find another free photo hosting site, and will likely try one of the ones previously mentioned here.
On a side note, I wonder if pictures that I’ve posted on other forums over the years now have a watermark on them. Anyone know offhand if that might be the case or not?
