Photo posting question.

Post by Weirdbeard1000 »

Can I post a photo from my Instagram using img code? Or do I have to use something like photobucket or Flickr?

instagram might not be able to, the reason people use photobucket and other immage hosting sites, is they provide "html" tags or [img] tags that you can copy and paste into these forums... ta-da !

Rule of thumb - if typing the URL address into a browser gives you the picture (and only the picture), and it does not require you to be signed/logged in to the web site where the picture resides, it will work with the [ img ] tags.

My guess is hosting pictures on sites like Intragram, twitter, and facebook, will probably by problematic for posting on forums.

Thanks guys. I was hoping to minimize the amount of passwords I need to remember... Too bad.
