Posting pictures in PM conversations

[Turkish]

How do you do this?

You will need to have some kind of cloud based account for image storage such as Photobucket. You then copy & paste the URL into the box as prompted below:

On Apple devices just screenshot as photo then upload as normal

Hi Klenchie,

Yes, thank you. I had a photobucket account, but it is now holding me ransom for payment to use it. Are there any 'free' platforms that we can post to and the get a URL from?

Can I ask, why is it different to posting in the forums?

Because it uses up space that we have to pay for. With posts everyone can see/get value from (some of the time ) the image where as with a PM only 2 people see it. If you need to send an image to a particular person you might as well use email or a 3rd party.

Yeah I was going to say just use email.

Use Imgur. It is much better than photobucket

Email it is then. Thanks for the insight.

create a google account - upload image to google drive - right click on image - select get shareable link - completely free within your 15gb general storage limit for emails/images/contacts etc. - if you get near your limit (which will probably take a few years) then create another account - tube starter for 10 here -
