How to post pics, Imgur

@rockmonster copied links don't work anymore, the imgur formatting has changed. 

You need to create your own link using the following:

https:// i.imgur.com/IMAGECODE.jpeg (taking out the space before i.imgur) where IMAGECODE is the text after the hash symbol in your original image, which in the case of your last photo is ucVYMLG

I’ve been using the App on my iPhone and its making itdifficult to get my head around it

It's a faff but the way I do it is I copy the link and paste in to a notes app, then edit the link to the format I shared, then copy and paste to here. 
It works. It's just a bit convoluted.

Imgur no longer is available in the UK, and Flickr doesnt seem to work here. Any suggestions?

I use Flickr and it works fine for me. Posted this from Flickr just the other day.

Yeah just figured it out. Had to use the 'embed' option, copy the URL,: <a data-flickr-embed="true" href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/199736036@N02/54840187812/in/dateposted-friend/" title="455255564_406089972487714_3584469034760069947_n"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54840187812_50b753ab3f_b.jpg" width="960" height="668" alt="455255564_406089972487714_3584469034760069947_n"/></a><script async src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Then cut this out https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54840187812_50b753ab3f_b.jpg then insert as image. A bit of a PITA.

I am subscribed. You need that .jpg link and its a PITA to get it (see my post above). Really shouldnt be this hard.

Is that on a phone? (I don't have a smartphone, I'm on a laptop)

I just use the 'download' arrow bottom right and select 'view all sizes'. Pick the size you want and then right click and 'copy image link'. eg. 'small 240' ...

or 'medium 800' ...

Ah - I didn't realise you meant for posting elsewhere.
