Hello from Sydney

[FluffyGroodle]

A bit of a newbie question: How do I post photos here? I got the whole attaching the image URL bit, but it only comes up with a question mark. Am I missing a step?

Use an image hosting service.
I use imgur. It will provide you with a link to use here.

That’s the confusing bit as I am using IMGUR too. I can get the link for the image, but nothing comes up when I attach the link to the message

 

[lerenau]

1. Copy the "Direct Link" from your image in Imgur.
2. Click the "Link" button here. "the chain-link icon"
3. Paste the link you copied in step 1 into the URL field that pops up.

Let me know if it doesn't work. We may be missing a step somewhere.

2. Use the picture frame icon instead.

Did that show up on your end from my attachment? I can’t see that when I attach the link...

 

[lerenau]

Ok, I lead you astray...

In step 2, you need to press the "Image" button. It looks like a postcard.

Also, make sure the link you copied from imgur is the DIRECT LINK. It will have a file-extension on the end. Typically 'jpg', 'png', or 'gif'.

Thanks, lerenau & RustyBlade! I think I'm getting the hang of this

How nice, another Sydney western suburbs member. We will be able to have our own meetings soon.

Oops sorry I forgot, I am busy on that day.

Sorry @FluffyGroodle you will have to meet with the yuppies in trendoid land. Make sure you wear your best flannelette shirt and a pair of Dr Martens and carry your straight razor open (that's all so they will recognise you)

I'll do my best to represent, but I might not have a mullet by that time
