Large Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Stumbled across this as I was trying to add an image to my post. Pasting the link doesn't work, and neither does trying to add it using the 'Insert other media' button? I'm trying to add an image from Google Photos, so is that the issue?

You don't have to use 'Insert other media'? just 'right click' and 'copy image address' and just add it to your post like this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition to John's post above, make sure the URL on the image ends in .png or .jpg or .jpeg etc. Can be easier to open the image in a new tab and then copy the URL from there.

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted February 14, 2019 Author Subscriber Share Posted February 14, 2019 Test https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5726616/mediaviewer/rm2781770752 Forget that, @Stans way sounds cushy, I tried the link bit and my one came out ok @Large? You can also use the facility below Drag files here to attach, or choose files... Accepted file types gif, jpeg,jpe, jpg, png Just chose your pic/file, 'click' and 'save image as' and save it on your computer, then 'choose files' and it should show pictures you have saved on your computer and add the picture below and post.

Large Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 None of that is working with the image I was trying to add. I also don't get the option to copy image address. Do I remember incorrectly, but I thought I used to just cut and paste the link and the picture would show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your link is probably wrong, try to copy it again and make sure it's not long as fuck should be something like http/www.blabla.com/cunt.jpg.
