    Pix don’t show up,...just a link

    Ok, so I figured out how to “upload” pictures to Google Photos.
    I then figured out how to do a split screen on safari so I could have the forum open on one screen and the google photos page on the other.

    But when I tried to drag one single picture from the album to a test post here on the forum it just displayed a link in the post. And,...the stranger thing,...when you hit the link it opened up a page with ALL of the photos in the album. Still trying to sort this thing out. Is there a trick to getting a single photo from google photos to a post here and have it show up as a picture not a link? (Especially to also avoid a link to all the photos in the album)

    I tried opening the pic in Google photo and hovered on it to open up the options menu. Selected “copy” and tried to paste into this box here.
    Once again, it showed up in the box when I was in the reply to thread mode but disappeared when I hit “post” button.

    This is harder than it should be.
