Any suggesstions appreciated. Clicking on tree used to upload photos from my ipad photos, but no longer. I've always used Chrome, but won't work here on Safari either.


I'm really bummed since the Photobucket rape. I have Imgur, but apparently you can't post to forums in IOS. I suppose I can give Flicker a try, but it sounds like hungry bloatware.

You can post to forums with Imgur. Just add the image code with the link.

I see a menu with BBC code appears on the right when you click the photo on a desktop, but that doesn't work with iPad.

Just paste the link in your post and add the IMG bracket code. Takes 5 seconds.

Click quote to this post and see the code around my link.

Also, if you use Tapatalk, it will make the code for you and you paste your link in the middle.

Hmmm. I see yours ends in jpg. Okay, I copied pic to Chrome and got a .jpg with a bunch of other stuff added on. Trimmed back to this:

The "mine with typo" didn't copy. It ends with a bunch of lettere & slashes. No dot extension. I see no way to copy a .jpg link directly from imgur on ipad. My googling showed no others with success either.

I clicked your link to this image in the other thread. Opened in Imgur app. At bottom of pic is an icon to capture link to image. It's a JPG. I added the code and got the above. Took 10 seconds.

Maybe you're grabbing the Imgur page URL rather than image URL?

Hallelujah! Sensei Fledge penetrates this skull full of mush. Thanks big time.

Yes, I was clicking the upper right icon on the app page, not the one that shows at bottom center after clicking photo. Two identical icons with same "copy link" symbol for different functions. What could be simpler?

Hahaha. Glad you figured it out.
