I been shut out of posting images that are on my PC or mobile devices because there is no mechanism here to upload them on to this site. I now go to other user sites that have that capable, upload the image and do a copy image, not save it from their site and come here and downloaded into the post. This forum does not accept Apple photo images and various other file types at all!

- email iphone pic to myself
- from pc, save pic to hard drive
- upload pic to imgur
- from imgur, copy direct link
- in ttw post, click insert image icon, paste link

I have a Tumbler and Pinterest accounts for doing photo conversions but the method in first post is much clean and easier to do.

Dude, that is WAY too many steps. Try imgbb.com once, you don't even have to register for an account if you don't care about saving the pic. All can be done on mobile or PC easily, no emailing to yourself necessary.

No doubt better ways ... but I have been using imgur for ttw since I joined in 2016. Until fairly recently, most of my ttw pics posted were pics grabbed from pro player video ... all from the pc. When I was watching a lot of pro youtube video ... I wanted to be on the PC ... not the iPhone ... lots of screen grabs with windows snippet tool. Does imgbb give you the option of image size you will post on ttw? I use/used that imgur feature a lot.

Yeah, you can change the size prior to upload. This is on iPad from Instagram in maybe 30 seconds.

I have both imgur and Photo Uploader on my phone.
imgur just hangs while uploading a pic. Photo Uploader is very fast and lets you copy the URL to clipboard which you can paste in the edit box.
