Will somebody please explain this, the help section is useless. Trying to upload a pic from local machine. You have to host the picture somewhere else on the Internet first. Some app such as Imagur. Then once it is on the web, you insert the link to the image into the “insert image” dialogue box. Bit of a pain but it costs money to have storage space for photos on TB.

TapaTalk on the phone hosts the images for you, no fuss, choose image and post. I don't like it for ordinary browsing,just use it to post pics. If you use Google photos there is a Direct Link app which creates the code for images stored there, but it's still a phaff.

I've tried loads of times with no luck. Maybe because I'm a thick northerner.

Its a bit of a bastard to copy the link text on my Neolithic smartphone on upl.co. Sometimes takes a bit of fiddling about. Is this the problem you get Clinton Cool? I find you have to get it highlighted by tapping on screen once then tap again and hold finger on screen for half a second then move finger sideways. No idea why but it does seem to get the copy option available.

I get frustrated when it doesn't work, and give up. A far cry from anything 'practical' where I'll invariably devise a bodge of some kind, that works. It's a good job I don't attempt to make a living from technology, the bailiffs would have visited many moons ago.
