(63,912 posts)even tho I arrange my photos in folders for special usage of related images here on DU. It always scrambles the images I have so carefully laid out in my folder! Is there something easier than tinypic?
Even on simply uploads it can take a lot of time just getting it all right...

(2,029 posts)I have storage space linked to my broadband account but, I believe other people use Photobucket. Once the photo is online, you only need to link to it in your post and it will appear. You can hit the preview button to make sure it worked.

if you don't have a photo bucket or other free photo account you'll need to start one, or if you want to post something you found on the web, just right click the pic, copy the address and paste into your post
hope that helps!

(63,912 posts)understood their process just fine. However, as I said above, I find it time consuming with a lot of steps when you are posting more than one image in a series (one by one).
