Help with image upload

Guys, how do I upload images so they show up as a picture rather than just a link!! It’s driving me mad!!

I download the imgur app to upload photos too but when I copy the link over to the forum post it stays as a link rather than the image !

Any help greatly appreciated

My issue is when I post a photo I’m hosting it at photobucket. The image will appear in my post but if you click the image it takes you to a library of all my images stored on photobucket.

I may give imgur a try. Would you mind if I post an image as a test in this thread? It’s been driving me crazy also.

Photobucket sucks.

I'm using Picr.me recently. It's simple and effective.

You select a photo and choose an "Embed" code. Using "Direct Link" provides a .jpg link like this: https://picr.me/i/2019/05/08/Vxhosh.jpg

Then you add [IMG] before and [/IMG] after the .jpg link and you get:

This is an ancient thread, but nobody has offered up instructions for uploading directly from your hard drive.

1) Click on "Go Advanced"

2) Click on "Manage Attachments" in "Additional Options"

3) Click on "Choose File" and upload (click "upload") your jpg file from your hard drive (file size has to be smaller than 293 kilobytes)

4) Close the "Manage Attachments" window

5) Click "Submit Reply"

Easy peasy.

In Imgur once uploaded picture click on picture box on left just click BBCode (message boards & forums) then paste on forum its very easy.

Not true very simple to do if you use common sense.
