PICTURE POST II!

Please don't feel any pressure. It's totally up to you! I wouldn't mind seeing who I've been talking to, but I know how I feel when I post my own pic online.
Yeah, no pressure Butters!
The picture in my avatar is about a year old. That’s how long it’s been since I’ve taken one I liked. But in an effort of comradeship, here’s one of me and Fred from the park last weekend.
I hate the dirt, but I love those pants. As my sister says, my bags of clothes to charity will be making some drag queens very happy. I tend to have a flair for the exotic.

Awwwww thank you! I’m sure you would rock them.
They’re much better than what I’m wearing now lounging on the couch. These ones have a hole in the butt.

That sound like the special pants I save to wear after an unfortunate trip to Taco Bell.Awwwww thank you! I’m sure you would rock them.

You need to put the image (or medium or thumbnail) URL from the “Direct Links” section between the IMG tags, rather than the image link from the “Common links” section.
HTH
Fraid that went right over my head.
In the quick reply box there are symbols above the box. Starts with B then I then U... click on the symbol after the smiley face that looks like the sun over a mountain. When you click that a box will appear where you can paste the link of your picture inside. Then click on "insert" button. Voila.
Good to see you Butters.
Sorry. Those are all options on the Embed Codes tab on your picture’s page on Gifyu. I’ll post a picture when I’m on a computer, that will hopefully be more helpful.
OK, on the Gifyu page that has your image, which you linked to above:
1. Click the "Embed Codes" tab underneath the picture
2. In the section labelled "Direct Links", hover over the field called "Image URL". This should display a "copy" button, so click that to copy the URL.
From here, it's just as @Gary Mitchell explained. In your post:
3. Click the "Image" icon (sun & mountains)
4. In the "Image URL" field, use ctrl-V to paste in the URL you copied
5. Click the "Insert" button
At this point, the image should appear in your editor box, and then should display fine when you post.
I think you were probably doing 3 to 5 OK, but it looked like in step 2, you were using the "Image Link" on Gifyu instead of the "Image URL". But the link only links to the page, not directly to the image, so it won't work in the IMG tags.

I’m halfway there but all my pics have to be resized or end up sideways or or upside down. I can rarely be arsed to go through all that lol.Yeah I think I must be brain lazy when it comes to photos. Avatars are about as photo savvy as I'll ever be. That's why that's actually me in mine
Bravo to all you for putting faces to names. You all look fantastic!
I find Imgur to be really simple. With that you have to use the “Direct Link” link. It took me a while to figure that out.
