Hiya folks

I used to use photobucket.com to upload images but it now wont give me an IMG code so I can display images right on the thread I want, what alternative is there?

Thanks

Sorry should have said I dont think I can access IMG codes on Imgur from a mobile device (I use my phone or tablet to view the forum).

Imgur wont let me get an img code from mobile browser or the app. I used to use photobucket.com but my account has been closed by them.

It can be done. If you have an Imgur account. You can't do it on the app though.

The way I do it is type the web address into Google. When it loads, at the top right of your browser should be a way to open options, I have 3 dots in a vertical line. Open this and there should be a desktop site function. Click this and it takes you to the desktop version of you then sign in.

When you then go to you images you should be able to get the BBC code which is what you want.

Apologies for the long description it's quite hard to explain.

I cant find the code to give the link to do that, I've tried the embed link but that just gives an album link instead of the individual image code

Now I've found how to it's easier,
what you need to do is

Click the three vertical dots on the browser page (top right next to the tabs on chrome)

Request Desktop site

When the site loads and your logged in you click your profile (top right of the browser, just below the three vertical dots)

Click Images in the drop down menu

Select your image you want to display here, then click copy next to the BBCode link.

Now come on here and paste the link to your post and repeat as needed.

Hope this is clear enough

Cal

You are looking at where the ejector seat used to be.
