Can't post pics using HTML

today | Me

Can't seem to post a pic on FR even using the 2015 HTML guidelines found in the 2015 SANDBOX section.
Anyone know why??
The symbol of the broken image below is that of the FR logo from that section.
Or is the the browser I cam using???

I use postimage.org when I wanna upload an image or grab a copy incase I suspect it is a hotlink unfriendly file.

Some sites block ‘hot linking’ pics, so you can’t post them. ........

Only satirical pics of Obama, other liberals, and allah are allowed here.

And kittehs, don't forget the kittehs!

I understand.

If using Firefox or Pale Moon as your browser, get this add-on for easy HTML code use.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bbcodextra/

It has single clicks for bold, italics, underlined, strikeout, images, URL's and other HTML such as lists.

How about a little Megyn?

E. Pluribus Unum occasionally has the right answer, but to the wrong question.

You don’t have to upload the image if it is already on a server.

I see some genuinely helpful Freepers helped you out.

...you know you have to be logged in to post pics. :)

You can cut & past your pic link to your browser and still get the error.

Photos or other images need to be on a web accessible server. Your image tag should then contain the URL address of the image. Try creating an account on Photobucket and uploading your photo there. Photobucket will give you the URL which you can then copy and paste to your FR posting. While it is possible to use the location of images on someone else’s web site this is bad form and likely violates copy rights. Stick with photos for which you have the copyright... Like your own photos or graphics you create in Photoshop.

Yes, that was a large image. I was just trying to help out!
