12. You want to post the url for the one that says Direct
|
I usually preview my post to make sure it looks like I want it to.

11. For PhotoBucket, you should use the 'Direct' option under 'Share This Photo'.

14. So much for DIRECT
|
I posted some pictures early on and they worked fine. Can't understand what happened. Any ideas?
HEY, I delete the image in photobucket as soon as it's posted to DU. Do I have to leave it in photobucket?? test DIRECT/photobucket 
I'm talking to myself, aren't I? A sure sign of genius. |

17. Oh yes, you need to leave it on Photobucket
|
That links to your photo. If you deleted your photo after posting it, it's no longer there so the link no longer has anything to link back to.
And that is a great pic! You can also make your photos bigger or smaller by using the edit function on Photobucket. That's one reason I always preview my post when I post a photo, to see how it looks before I post it. |

30. I have Android Pie on a Note 9

and use Dolphin as a browser. If you can navigate on a browser to an image and long press it, it gave me various options including to "share" (which offers the link to copy by tapping it) or you can save it or view it. Once you can copy the link, then you should be able to navigate to DU to the message box and long press in the box to "paste".
Will test that out in my next post from my phone. EDIT - pasting an image from the phone - 
(back to laptop) - you just have to make sure the image you are copying has a commonly recognized image extension - i.e., "jpg" or "jpeg" or "gif" or "png" or "tif", etc. (also had to fix the spelling errors from the phone too  ) |

32. Not all photo links work here.
|
Your best option is one with a .jpg extension. If I'm looking for a version of a photo that works, I'll right click on the photo and choose "Search Google for Image" for the photo. That gives you all the versions of the photo out there and I choose the one (right click and choose "Copy Image Address" ) that's the best size and has the .jpg extension. I generally preview it to make sure it worked.
