Unable to upload Photo

[Tying2Fly]

So I tried reducing the size of my photo of my first fish this year from Willow Springs Lake, and also deleted some of my older photos from my gallery, but this system is still not letting me post my one photo. It is a jpg file and only 90kb so what is my problem?

I'm not sure why you can't post photos either, as I haven't been able to do it for some time.

Have you looked at the Facebook page, "Arizona Fly Fishing"? There is starting to be a larger and larger community on that site. https://www.facebook.com/groups/440828689386511/

I haven't tried direct posting pics on this site for years... I use a service like Imgur. Pretty easy to do.

I used to post photos all the time until Photobucket wanted to start charging an obscene amount of money for a yearly subscription to be allowed to link photos to this site from the third party hosting site. Haven’t worked with Imgur. Maybe MeLikeFlyFish-FlyFishGood could provide some instructions to how he posts photos with it?

Danny - I found this on Google, a short and easy to understand YouTube tutorial. I also signed up for an account on imgur.com, so once the Rim winds slow down to sub-light speed, I'll get up there and take pics of my Tiger Safari's.

Not sure why, but when I copy and paste the link, all that shows up is code after I hit the submit button on the azflyandtie website. Methinks more time understanding how to use this new tool is in order. But then again, I don't get the Upload button he talks about early on in the video...

Ok, so I don't use it often but just went to Imgur for a test drive. I'm posting a pic from last September's Alaska trip that I never posted about... I truly intended to do a full write up.

On Imgur, the 'Image' link (the one I'd think would be the logical choice) doesn't work here and will only display the code however both of the options labeled as BBC (towards the bottom right corner of the page) work.

When creating the post on AZFAT use 'Advanced' mode you will still only see the code while you are creating the post but you will be able to view the pic and how it presents on this site when you 'Review Post'.

So, when attempting to post a pic click the icon that resembles a square with a mountain in it and then paste the copied link from either of the 'BBCs'

Got it, thx!

I used to be able to post several pictures on here and in fact I still have a fairly sizable gallery of photos stored here. So I am running a little test to see if I can insert one of the photos stored to this post via the insert picture command.
