I use http://freeimagehosting.net

No account necessary, although if you want one you can make one to store your memes/photos online. I don’t use an account.

I save the image to my computer, upload to freeimagehosting.net, and then paste a portion of the link into the FR reply box.

Here’s an example. I’ll replace the “<” symbols with “[” so it doesn’t go all html on me.

Here’s was the full link looks like:
[a href=”http://www.freeimagehosting.net/commercial-photography/”][img src=”https://i.imgur.com/YiKzzMc.png"; alt=”Commercial Photography”][/a]

You only need the second half as such:
[img src=”https://i.imgur.com/YiKzzMc.png"; alt=”Commercial Photography”][/a]

But you don’t even need that much. I trim off the end and the little /a:

[img src=”https://i.imgur.com/YiKzzMc.png";]

This is what you need to post the picture. But it might come out the size of a Denny’s coloring book placemat. So I like to size the images to “500” or so. Like this:

[img src=”https://i.imgur.com/YiKzzMc.png"; width=”500”]

Notice, I just added ‘width=”500”’ to the end after the quotes and before the end bracket.

I’ll reply to this post with this link:
[img src=”https://i.imgur.com/YiKzzMc.png"; width=”500”]

except I’ll replace the [] with <> marks.

This way, a reader can also right click on the photo to see the link, or paste this into a browser window without the quotes and go directly to the photo:
https://i.imgur.com/YiKzzMc.png

Tell me if this helps.

Mairdie is a real expert on this stuff. I’m just giving you the knuckledragger version.
