No idea why the 2nd link doesn't work for me, but you've been able to copy me direct link and turn it into a picture.

So you are using postimages to make a direct link to the picture, then adding it to the Carpforum code and then posting it in the thread.
The link im copying (hotlink for websites) will paste straight into the thread and needs no tinkering.

I found that Dave, I tried a few links and it wasn't posting the pictures direct from the link until you said use the hotlink then it did, that's why I like imgbb copy full html link paste into thread picture automatically displays.saves all the faff, I tried Gerry's hosting site as imgbb is down for maintenance, I'm ok now that you pointed me in the right direction with the postimage links

not sure what your talking about tinkering ?? LMFAO !!!
when I joined Carpforum there was a guide how to put pictures on the site and how to make them bigger or smaller
so I used it and have done ever since the only time we had a problem was when Photo bucket packed up
IMO it could not be easier the only problem is trying to explain it
as if you type the code to explain it no one will see it unless you break it up as it automatically trys to make a picture I done this in my post below anyone trying this will see just how fast and simple it is
@ Ian I do it the original way try following my post below see if it works

I used to do it the same way as you Gerry but as things have moved on a lot of the hosting sites you can just copy and paste the link directly without all the Forum text and they automatically display imgbb being one and knowing the right link on the image site you posted also does it now just shortcuts having to insert a link between text.

I just realised what Dave and you were saying you dont need ANY TEXT just the link

I'm on another forum where you can just select an image from the gallery on your phone and upload it straight to the forum. So straightforward, always puzzled me why this forum isn't the same?

I find I usually have to add the width=500 bit to the links with that way. If it's a half decent shot I use the medium linked option
