Best way to attach/imbed photos?

Post by HardTI »

Hi Guys,
I want to make a post that includes a bunch of photos of a project I have been working on.
I always seem to get the photo attachment wrong. It's always either a low res image or link I enter in with the img tags still remains a URL.

What's the best method for uploading photos and adding them here?

So I do have to upload it to some hosting site first? No way to directly upload?

Never works for me. I upload them, get the URL, put them in my post here like this. Used the image tag and had this in between https://imgur.com/o9etYpa

I'm not sure what web browser you're using so your right click menu might look different. But there should be a similar option.

I essential just use my Tumblr account for posting photos here.

There's no limit to the amount of draft photos you can save.

Also, nice job posting a 4K wide image and ruining everybody else's posting experience, chud.

I know, I'm a monster.

If HTI or a mod edits his post that quotes my image it'll be better. I edited my own post with a smaller version.
