catfan 14,489 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 Mu suggestion BK would be to dump Postimage There are better alternatives available Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jill Sparrow 8,466 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 I've had similar problems with it, Beekay. I don't use it any longer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carni 9,766 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 1 hour ago, Beekay said: I don't seem to be able to get any further than choosing an image. Instead of going on to click on 'hotlink, it just goes to a page full of adverts. If I go back a page it just shows 'choose image' again. Am I doing something wrong? It's frustrating not being able to post pictures. HELP, ANYONE. You are not alone BK. I tried to post an image recently and again this morning, but to no avail. Exactly the same happening on my Post image. I just abandoned it in the end? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 2,793 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 Okay, Jill and Catfan, who can tell me what the alternatives are? I'm open to any ideas and bow to your longer experience. Carni, re the puzzles, I've had exactly the same results, so not going to bother with rotating. Found loads of Nottingham images to do on there. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stuart.C 254 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 I use IMGUR for images, never seems to have problems. Never thought to look for Nottm images, I just do anything around 100 pieces or it takes too long to sort them out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 2,793 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 It might sound daft Stuart, but how do I go about using Imgur? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carni 9,766 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 Not daft BK. I need to know anawl? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 8,939 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 I've been using Imgur since Photobucket started playing silly buggers several years ago. I never went to Postimage so I don't know about them. Just Google Imgur; it will take you to the site and then you sign in and create an account. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 2,793 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 Do you have to pay CT? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PeverilPeril 2,765 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 First - I will take a look at imgur as well Second - the chickens wings were clipped this morning. The main offender; Queenie tried to fly off but went to hide in a corner. And guess what? There in that hidden corner she had built a nest and there were 19 eggs in it! So, she has redeemed herself 18 of the eggs passed the water test and you can guess what we had for lunch. Not all 18 of course. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nonnaB 4,137 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 18 eggs PP they'll get you cooking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 2,793 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 Well, that's no yolk PP ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 2,793 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Carni, if you read this, I think I've sussed out the posting problem. Hopefully have attached a picture for you. When you've chosen a picture, then at the top of the screen tap or click on share. This will take you to the choices. Tap or click on Hotlink to Forums. This will show 'copied. You can then go back on NS and paste your pic. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MargieH 6,615 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 I’ve just used postimage to put a picture on ‘Amusing images’ and there was no problem. I actually choose Direct Link from the options 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 2,793 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 So at least we can still use it eh, Margie. ( where did you find 'Direct Link?.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 2,793 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Addition to above post.... Found it Margie,(direct link). Will give it a try next time I want to put a picture on. The silly thing is that having solved a problem, is the sense of relief that you feel, as though all is back to normal. Postimage lives !! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carni 9,766 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 I am trying (Very) BK/Margie. I still keep getting the adds. Can't work out how to avoid them, but will keep trying? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
