I am fairly sure you can't do that with Dropbox

I just upload pictures to Tinypic to display them in a post - no account needed and no storage limits.

Hmmm, it can be done, but it's painful this way, cos dropbox don't easily give you the "true" link to the image.
Like this.
Better off using PhotoBucket.

Photobucket is really easy when you get the hang of it Lisa, esp if you want to put many pictures in one post. Photobucket gives you all the links for all the pics in just one click - you do not need to put the

Thanks you two...about to uninstall dropbox coz it doesn't like me! Now just need to find my Pbucket login details if I can't get on with the other thingy...what was it?...began with 'T'. Anyway...thanks all.

hope you don't mind lisa but I am just having a play with photobucket so thought I would post in here to see if I have cracked it or not LOL

have you worked it out yet lisa I have worked out how to get one picture from photobucket up, but I cannot work out how to load a few pics together as JFM has stated is possible ???????

most annoying thing for me is I could do it no problem before they changed photobucket now I just cant master it

 

[lisilou]

Grrrrrr lol but they're only links not ready to view pics so...how'd you do it so the pic shows?

 

[lanerboy]

lisa turn on the organise button at the top of your pics in photobucket then select the pic you want to post, this will highlight the pic in a blue box then click link in bottom right of grey band at the bottom then click the IMG box and this will copy the code
you then go back to forum page and click the square pic in the options row 4th from the right then copy and paste the link in the url box and detick the tick in the box and that should be it
as my previous post though I am by no means an expert lol

 

[lisilou]

Thanx LB...will try it in a bit (when I've got my patience back! lol)
