How to post photos to DU [View all]

This discussion thread was locked by CC (a host of the Photography group).

How I use Photobucket to get photos onto DU. Others may use a different method and can add their way in the comments. Also others use different programs and should feel free to also add a how to in comments.

Log into your Photobucket account and go to your Home page. Click the orange (for now) upload button.

Drag the photo/s you want to upload into the box.

Wait for them to finish uploading.

Go find your photo in your library and click on it.

When it loads you will see "Links to share this photo" on the right. Click on Direct. It should highlight and say Copied.

Paste into your post...

When you are finished preview your post. If everything looks good post your thread.

I don't edit in photobucket so for help there I would ask someone that does or just play around with it. Playing is a great way to learn.
