It is a lot more of a faff than it needs to be. But it's easy enough to create a free account on somewhere like https://imgbb.com/ where you can upload images and get the link info to paste into your post on here.Man, this is harder than I thought.

If the idea behind it is to save server space on bluelight, it doesn't make sense that pictures cant be directly posted, but video links can?
One more mysterious quirk of Bluelight.
No, I don't think so, it's probably me. I'd have thought that embedded videos would take up much more space, but I guess if most of the video posts are links to youtube etc, then that's not going to take up much space.But surely the link (which only takes up a few bytes on the Bluelight server) just redirects to the imgbb (or other image hosting site) server, where the image (consisting of several MB) is actually held?
Or am I missing something?

Save them to your device first, and then upload from there?Yeah, I know how to post pix from my own camera, but that doesn’t apply to just random images one discovers online. How do you post those? I’ve tried the usual “Share/Copy Link” route but just ends up with shit like Fubz’ pic![]()

Deep and sophisticated Indian philosophy literature I definitely didn’t get copies of from a woman clearly in a cult.
For @Zopiclone bandit , naturally.

You got those off the Krishnas dancing around the town centre in the 80s didn't you?
(I'm sure I received those ones as well)
I dont understand why. Practically every image I've ever uploaded here has come from somewhere else online. And as long as its a standard image format of jpg, jpeg, png etc, things that let you 'save as' to a file location of your choice, on your device, they are fine to upload to an image sharing site.Will give it a try but… I kinda know it doesn’t work due to having tried it previously![]()

Some images are webx, (IIRC) web pages, those can also be saved, but the process has more steps.

You may be getting older, but everyone knows you're far from stupid. It might be a problem with your device or settings, as tbh I really cant understand what the issue might be. All I can add for one last tip is to suggest that you save your intended upload pic to the same folder as the photos you've taken yourself. That way when you come to upload it to imgbb or w/e, the pic will be in the same folder as all the other photos you've had no problem with uploading.Probably cos I’m old and stupid tbh. I’ll keep on trying![]()
