Posting pictures is sooooo hard! It must have taken me all of two minutes to post them.

Sometimes being the fastest isn't always the best. I admit, I do it the cumbersome way. Take pictures, TEXT them to my email and then load them into photobucket. It certainly isn't the fastest or easiest but it works for me. I have trouble with my fat fingers and the keyboard on my phone.

Thanks for proving even a retard can do it! 😆

Skip your step 5 and 6. No need for full editor. No need for clicking on the picture icon.

For your 7 just paste the “hot link for forum” into the body of your campfire reply.

Yesterday Postimages started acting up on me so I couldn't try out your suggested method. Today I gave it a try.
You are correct it is "faster" in that there are a total of two fewer clicks on the mouse to do what you're describing, as I just used your method to post three images to a new listing for some brass I'm selling.

I think we can agree that getting the images onto the Postimages site is common to both. From that point forward, you might save a second, max. But I'll take a second less off my life any day - LOL. Learn something new every day.

Hey Dinny,
No offense brother, but on my PC none of your pics show up. They're all the PostImages Blue Square of Death. Twenty-seven of them.

Cheers,

Same on my computer, blue squares.

I’ll be damned, even an old Marine can do it!

Today I see a few blue squares too, but most the pictures are still there. Every once in a while postimages has fits and doesn't work perfectly. I attribute that to not having a paid account.

Yep. Pure comedy.

What a dink……..I don’t waste my time learning digital. I’m analog.

Ive never had a computer…built guns with folks you can’t understand their skills.

I’m doing a Britte action from Stephen Dodd Hughes. Built in the 1930s buried till 1999

With the help of D’Arcy Echols I found a man to stock it. He learned and worked stocking shotguns at H&H.

I’m sending him a $2000 chunk of wood to do this side lock.

But with your input I realize that would be a mistake….. he has no cell phone and can’t even text a picture.

Thank you for your brilliant logic.

And I’m paying him cash. As I usually do when I buy things on the fire.

No it's not that difficult but it is 20yr old outdated technology. How many other forums still use third party image hosting?

Attached files won't allow anything larger than 2MB. iPhone used to let me size them down but now it won't for some reason. Combine that with IMGUR blocked at work, and here I am wanting to post something but can't.

Try Postimages.org as so many here have suggested.

I don't mind asking a seller to send me pictures. A lot of times it gives me an advantage to be one of the first to see the item that's up for sale.
