Seems like a problem for almost everyone. Nothing I do works. File size always too large and tiny picks makes a littl dot you can hardly see. I miss not posting anymore.
except for a few, most are not posting photos anymore because they simply don't work!

One easy 'workaround' I have found is to first post a pic on our Facebook page...
https://www.facebook.com/GulfShoresPierFishing
and left click on the pic (to view in "Timeline photos",
Then right click on the pic and "copy image address".
Then I can drop that photo into a post here by using the "Insert Image" button in the "Quick Reply" bar above.
Change to "From URL"
Uncheck the button that says "Retrieve remote file and reference locally"
Paste the picture URL into the box
press "OK"
and wallah...
So easy, a pierfisherman can do it ;-)

You are just looking for the easy/lazy way, ....get in tiny pic's and figure it out....I am in no way computer savy, but I figured it out (and without the grandkids help) .....something new is sometimes worth the effort....I offered help when down there but you never seemed to want it.

Putting pics on this forum is easy.
If a middle aged guy like me, of questionable computer literacy can do it, you can too Todd.
Old dogs can learn new tricks.
It is very easy to ReSize pics in TinyPics for website posting.
Before Uploading, under the ReSize drop down menu select, Website/Email 320x240
Then Upload your pic.
This is the size it wil post as then.
Load pics from camera/phone onto PC
Load from PC onto any free image hosting site, I use imgur.com or you can use TinyPics.com
Copy the 'BBCode' or 'Linked BBCode', or 'IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards', and paste it into your message
Done, hit Submit ReplyRagnar Benson:

Now I have to figure out why they're coming out sideways?

I have been copying and pasting photos from FB and other sites for a while.
I created a "Me Only" photo album on my personal FB page and can upload to that album and then all I do is open the photo, right click the photo and paste it on the forum just like it was text and BOOM, there it is!
The photo below was copied and pasted from a friends FB post. As easy as 1-2-3
1. Open photo
2. Right click and copy
3. Go to your forum post and Right Click and paste below the text you typed. No link needed.
I have a Photobucket account I pay for and it works fine, but this is so easy I hardly ever use Photobucket any more.Last edited by FinChaser; 05-13-2018 at 12:44 PM.
I’ll be sliding into town March 10-14. Can you have it warm and sunny for me then? And also, how about having the fish biting??? :D
