stone1288 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Morning everyone, I'm going to sound like a complete idiot when i ask this but oh well. Is there a trick to adding pics to a post? Every time i try to post one from my computer it tells me that I'm only allowed say 2kb for pictures. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dnl42 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Short story: Post your photos on your own website or some photo sharing site. Get the URL from the photo on said other site and paste it into your post. Like this from PhotoBucket (you need to remove that goofy "~orginal" from the end of the URL) Or this from postimage  Google is also possible, but it's too much of a PITA for me to deal with... You can do the same with your signature line. The below are all from postimage Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SBARC Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 you can upload a photo directly to a post on ARC....but it has to be under 100Kb in size (so you need to resize the photos yourself). Or you can upload it to a photo hosting site like photo bucket and then link to the photos there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stone1288 Posted April 17, 2017 Author Share Posted April 17, 2017 I appreciate all the replies gents. If I had looked a little harder, I probably would have seen that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Long story short, I uploaded a bunch of photos to photobucket. I have some of them in a custom album. The album shows that there are 45 photos in that album, but when I click on it, none of them show. I got tired of trying to figure that out, so I uploaded everything to my Google Photos, but now I cant post them here lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
