9. It's all I use now, you just need to have the image saved somewhere to folder, desktop, harddrive.

And then go to the site and browse for the image and "whoosh", it will create an image and a URL you can use to post the image here or on other sites.

Doing it the first time might take practice and then you'll remember how to do it...

http://postimage.org/

Then "select file to upload"

Then you have an option to resize (it's good to go with 800x600 or 1024x768).

Then go down and select "direct link" and either copy the url that ends in "jpg" or press the "copy to clipboard" button and paste into your DU post or reply.

Give it a shot!
