POST IMAGE SERVICE

[monomaster2]

I have an opinion about the Post Image Service . . . if you can't figure out how to post a full size picture on the forum or the service doesn't work that way, I say scrap it!

Linking to go to another website that is hosting pictures is ridiculous in 2018! If there is no way to post a full size picture on the forum using that service, I would suggest using Flickr on Yahoo.

Thank you, that is all!

Odd...
The system here seems to work just fine.
Click on a photo in your files and it gets posted, no fuss, no muss.
Works as easy as posting an image on Facebook
Try clicking on the image for a larger view...

Great paint up!

You have to go to the Post Image website to see the larger photo. That is my issue.

So...what's the problem with that?
All that you need to do is click on the (relatively large) thumbnail and you're automatically brought there...you click on the back arrow and you're back in the Clubhouse...seems pretty simple and straight forward to me.
Al lot easier than having to signup for an image hosting service yourself, or being held for ransom by Photo-Bucket.

Isn't it simpler to view the image, full size, on the thread?

It is not more convenient to be directed to another site and then have to click back to the original thread.

Like this:





P.S. - Don't use Photobucket.

Totally.

I pointed this out to Trev a few days back - it got screwed up when the image hosting site had a domain change forced on them (from .org to .cc)

Trev put a fix in to adjust the domain name (so pics could be posted again), but it ain't quite right - http://theclubhouse1.net/phpBB3/viewtop ... 8&start=52

He's got a lot on his hands right now, but hopefully he can re-tune this when he has more time.

I respectfully disagree...now, all you need to do to add pictures is click on the little blue button and select the pictures from your computer and add them to your post.
If you want to view someone elses pictures you just click on the thumbnail and it automatically enlarges. Now I recognize that you have to click the back arrow in your browser to get back to "The Clubhouse" but that seems like a small price to pay in exchange for not having to sign up and (potentially) pay for a hosting site...whether it's PhotoBucket, or someone else.

Actually. Since bandwidth doesn't seem to be an issue for us anymore.
I was thinking of looking into something directly tied to the forum.
That way, we don't have to worry about Post Image having issues again in the future.

That may be a ways off though. We need to get the funding drive taken care of.
A few other things sorted out.
Then hopefully my health will be somewhat better and I can track something down.

We definitely need to have the ability to post images easily. on the forum.
And after the little snafu, I'm not comfortable putting all that into the hands of a 3rd party.

In case anyone missed it, I posted the same Lugosi image (at full size) in the thread from Post Image Service with the correct coding.
