| I had the same problem Malcolm ... It wasn't that me and Meerkat were doing anything wrong it was the forum behaving differently. Instead of just the upload to host Image box another appeared requiring log in to a third party site. I think we went around in circles trying to resolve it and weren't successful. |

I think it's the same ISP and IP problem sags. You have to get rid of your cache, cookies etc. Change your password restart your browser and log in again then try again to host an image and fill in the pop up box. |

Sounds an incredible amount of hard work Malcolm ... I'm too old and tired for all that now. I'm quite happy to sit and admire the images others post. |

| You can use the other ways, like you do on other forums...Photobucket, Tinypic etc. |

| I know you tried to help Malcolm, and I said I am mainly on a iPad. Had no bother before it changed. These people you notified that sent me an email, it was all written in French, I don't speak it. I'm not on photobucket etc, I cleared my history on the iPad and changed password, but no luck. |

| I never have used forum software for posting images. I find it much easier to get a link from a photo hosting site for copy/pasting directly into a forum post. Maybe the photo-hosting site shouldn't be Photobucket now though in view of the recent news on charges.
Most photo-hosting sites give a few different kind of links to copy once you click the 'Share' or 'Get Links' button. It's important to choose the one that says 'BBCode' because this is the one needed for forums.
When the BBCode link is copied, come back to the forum post composition box and paste it into the post. Get that right and photos in posts will show. Always use the 'Preview' button to make sure all is well before trying to post in the forum. |

| The first step is to open an account with an image hosting site. I've just signed up with IMGUR and that seems pretty good. https://imgur.com/ |
