I’ve always had to upload via the desktop site. Always been frustrating that I can’t upload to the forum via iPhone

@Teyeplayer ;
1. Save your image somewhere such as imgur
2. In Imgur click the picture to bring icon circled in red

3. Click the icon, and select Copy Link

4. Come back to your post here. Select the page icon, paste your imgur link into the box (Where it says Image URL), and press the space bar.

Tried that a thousand times. After I have pasted the UTL,I hit the space bar, the contents of the photobox, and the photo box itself disappear. 

Every time.

 Just an empty box when using Flickr having followed the instructions above to the letter.

 And another go. Same again. No idea.

Works fine for me using the Imgur app... tap on the image and then the Share icon; copy link; back tFB comment box click on the document icon and paste the link, then add a space and the picture appears.

I’m just going to add that it’s possible that when this reaches the site there may just be two little document icons there instead of pictures. Hopefully admitting that will make me look a little less foolish.

Is Flickr giving you the correct url? IBB doesn’t, you have to edit it. If you post the url we can have a look at it.
