Most modern forums allow you put the link as "media." Some older ones that don't support that, do let let you embed the entire HTML code. That doesn't seem to be supported here.

Posting link to the image is supported on this forum. Probably depends where the photo is hosted.

Here is link to the original location on somebody's page:


Same photo downloaded to my PC and hosted/uploaded to one of free hosts:

They don't allow hotlinks with the source URL of the images. I'm unable to encourage downloading the images to upload them here.

Patience for the moment on this. Thank you.

So the short answer is NO, you can't use Instagram photos for Nomad posting?

The scorpion pics are no good because you can`t see the tail. The truck pics are much better because you can see.

If looking at the tail is all it takes to make man happy - well, so be it ...

If you were not aware, Instagram is a big data mining company owned by Facebook, all part of that social media cesspool.

What I have found so far is Instagram can only show photos taken on your phone? Is there no way to post pics from your PC? I also need to learn how to post videos I took of Curt LeDuc driving Baja roads from the passenger seat. I am still decompressing from the trip... In time, I will get it figured out... or not!

Not straightforward to post from a non-mobile device but this works - https://www.hopperhq.com/blog/how-to-post-to-instagram-from-...

Thanks, but can you give the steps and assume I know nothing about Instagram... I appreciate the help! Consider me old on learning this stuff, lol! Where is Share Link at? Photos in my PC folder don't have three dots by them. It is the picture in my PC I would want to share onto Instagram. I know about the three dots on Instagram, however. I think the site Three2tango posted may be the ticket?
