I for one appreciate the help David gives many Nomads on photo posting as it is a bit tricky at first...but we all love to see photos...I sincerely believe David is just trying to help....unlike others who just criticize.

What did I do wrong here Shari? Why doesn't my photo open directly to the post?

Copy and paste the IMG link on your Photobucket page...
as it says above:
Once done with uploading photos, make your post here on Baja Nomad and add photos using the IMG link from the choices of links for each photo in your album. Copy and paste that link in your Nomad thread, double spacing between links. Add a caption to the photo if desired... Click Preview Post to check your post... if okay, click Post Reply.

For some reason I can not find that on Photobucket. Although I have found it in the past.

When I click on the link YOU posted here for the photo, I get right to the photo...




Here is the IMG link (just click your mouse on it and it is automatically copied to paste on the Nomad page)...

They are in my steps, no different than Windows 7, for me.


There are many photo hosting sites, Photobucket.com is one used by many here, it is free for basic membership and very cheap for advanced.

1) Create an album for your trip or subject on Photobucket.

2) Click Upload (top center) to transfer photos from your PC folder to your Photobucket album.

3) Click on the gear symbol on the right corner of the box you see on the screen...





4) Select 800 (full size) or 640 (large size) for Nomad posting...



100x75 is the Avatar size, fyi.

5) Click SAVE!

6) Select photos you want to share on Nomad (or other forums) by pressing the Choose Photos & Videos button (or for the entire folder of photos, click Choose Folder).


Once done with uploading photos, make your post here on Baja Nomad and add photos using the IMG link from the choices of links for each photo in your album. Copy and paste that link in your Nomad thread, double spacing between links. Add a caption to the photo if desired... Click Preview Post to check your post... if okay, click Post Reply.

thought i'd give it a try from my cloud drive

the community is Posada Concepcion on Bahia Concepcion, you can see how shallow the bay is in front of the houses. The faint dark blue line running out perpendicular from the beach in the middle of the bay is the channel that has been dredged for boats. In the distance is Playa Santispac.

fishbuck

your link doesn't specify a file, maybe that's the problem.

I am trying to post the photo from my smartphone ( Galaxy Note4) and have done it before but I don't get the "IMG" URL menu selection this time.
But I"ll keep trying. Might need to try using a pc or laptop.

Why can't it just be easy to post pics?

Click upload, choose the file and hit upload. It really should and could be that easy with auto sizing to the sites specification to boot.

If you got it down, just post the links one under the other... double space between links.

Here are three photos, [with a space added in the links after jpeg to prevent the picture from working in this example]...

[IMG]http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc212/DavidKier/2016%20Baja%20Extreme/IMG_4277.jpg [/IMG]


OK... now here are the three IMG links (no space added to the link address)

No, I mean easy. Not going thru photo bucket, not copy and paste, not getting the right spaces or none, no secret handshake, just click the photo on your hard drive or phone and wowy zowy, the pic uploads for all to see.

Think Craigslist add photo posting. Take a picture of what ever you are selling, click upload and it's done.

Oh, you see that requires this website to upgrade... and Doug has his hands full with enough already... He did a major upgrade a few years ago, sadly we lost a bunch of posted photos from the first years of Nomad, and the only improvement here was for those who don't bother to learn the photo hosting methods by allowing photos to be bigger than 50 kbs (the original size limit).

I think we are lucky that Doug is maintaining Nomad for our entertainment and education, after fourteen years now... We can ask him to upgrade again so it is like other forums that auto re-size the too big photos, but it really is so easy to just do the Photobucket process I have outlined a bunch.
