Post your image on your blog Right click on the image and select 'copy image link'. Create a TMP post and paste the image link. |

But I don't have a blog!!! And why do we still have to do this, AND NO WHERE ELSE? |

But I don't have a blog!!! And why do we still have to do this, AND NO WHERE ELSE? Every wargaming fora (quite a few) that I use needs to have an image link to enable it to find the image. That image needs to be hosted somewhere. A blog is one such place, Flickr is another. It costs someone to host that image, most wargames fora can't afford that. |

If you have Google Drive account, you can add images to the "Public" folder and copy the link. Not sure whether the same works with One Drive, Dropbox etc. I do agree with the OP though, it is a tedious process to go through. |

thanks for the replies – that is interesting that the forum does actually allow for BBcode image posting – i had done that in another post but it didnt show the image, just a link to the image, which is fine but i would prefer if it showed in teh post and saved people the hassle |

Agreed a complete pain in the backside – it would be far, far better to be able to do as you can on Total War Center Forums and post a picture/image direct from your own PC! |
