Its best you use a photo site eg Photobucket, flickr

Copy photos URL, click on image box above, then paste URL into new window, click ok. Done!!

Nooooo don't do that

Then the rest of us have to click a link and wait for it to load up in a new web page.

Mucho Paino in the Asso

Image right in thread using the tags is better!

Cruise controllers, they all have their heads in the clouds I swear

Noticed a few people asking this over the last cupla months soooooooo.

1/ If using the Tapatalk app on your smart phone, once you have selected 'Reply', open the 'options' and you will see where to put an image link. As stated above - a bit of a pita for others but sits on the tapatalk server so that means less work for this server.

2/

(a) If using a laptop or desktop computer, again - as stated above - open an account on any of the cloud storage sites ( for this reply, I'm using stuff from my imgur.com account).

(b) If possible, convert your photos to 1024 x 768 - if you have any version of MS Office, find a program called Microsoft Office Picture Manager which is usually in the 'Tools' folder or Photoshop. The reason for this is so when the photo is clicked on, it doesn't go any bigger than the ---average--- screen res.

© Once this is done, upload your photos to the cloud storage site. When it's uploaded, click it to open.

(d) Once the photo is opened (in my case on imgur) you will see something like this

Note the two (2) arrows....we will use 1 or the other in a minute.

Now open the 'Reply' window in the forum and to add the pic, you can do a couple of things.

You can hit the button in the pic below and copy the link from the TOP arrow into the popup window that opens

or you can copy the link from the BOTTOM arrow <img>blar-blar-blar</img> and simply paste it straight into the reply window.

Imgur/Photobucket etc are the way like has been said. No traffic costs associated with this forum :)
