No need to apologise for asking a question mate.

You mean putting pics in forum posts by "chat" I take it?

Postimage works or go paid and you can basically copy/paste, effectively**.

** Like I say, effectively. Just choose the image from gallery or whatever and it'll appear in your post.

No worries mate, post back here if you have issues, someone will help you further.

There is another method if you use Google Photos btw, it takes the daft Google link that won't work on most sites and reformats it to work. It's done on a webpage. That said, it's no easier than the postimage method.

(Oh, on postimage, you need the Hotlink for forums option.)

Works for us poors too, it asks for a link to the image so just upload it to imgbb.com or similar.

On a related note, the forum seems to be broken again.  I posted a pic from my phone and it works fine, but then doesn't work when I view the page in edge/windows.

You should be able to copy a link directly into the text field, provided it's a .gif or .jpg link, rather than some fancy version.

Clearly not, their hardware is not as modern as that. And not a hamster in sight
