Well I've signed up with imgur and have uploaded a couple of photos to them but can't see how to get from that to here. I do not love computers.


Does it not present you with a series of links, when you click on one of your images?

I uploaded a few test pictures, if I click on one, there's a list of links to the right of the image. Click the blue "Copy" button alongside the link for bbcode, and you can then paste that into a post you make here. Pressing Ctrl & the V button at the same time, does a paste (on a PC at least). You can also press the right button on a mouse, and select paste from there. Not sure how it works on an ipad, but there'll be a way.

Rick,
No series of links on an ipad.
This is looking all too hard...

You have to put the [img] [/img] round each separate photo link.

Thanks for getting my photos up Penman, even if I'm now the guilty one for making the text so small!
But I don't understand what you mean. I didn't have anything to do with an "img" whatever that is. All I did was an iPad version of copy and paste.
Thanks again.
Garry

So long as the link to the image (usually ending in .jpg) is within two img tags, ie within [img]... [/img] with no other text in there, the photo should show ok.

I didn't realise that. So it was the "fingers crossed" that upset Garrym's first try.
