    Posting Pictures (again!)

    Hi All, Is there a simple way to get "good" pics on this site without having to use a 3rd party application? I tried tapatalk and the TZ app and only seem to be able to send links (perhaps visible in tapatalk)and they seem to very low res and small and grainy. There is another bike website I am a member of and you can send images of up to 244kb straight from the hard drive and these are more than adequate for forum use. I'm sure this has been asked loads of times before and I did do a search but nothing much came up. I would appreciate a simple method (there are many stunning and good quality shots on here) and prefer not to use 3rd party web hosting sites..... Cheers, John B4

    The bike website will have "pop-up" advertising to pay for the web storage.
    Also, they normally "own" the pictures once uploaded.

    TZ is free to use, but you will need a hosting service to store the pictures.
    I am self employed with a business website, so I dump the photos on there and upload the FTP link.
    There will be free hosting services out there somewhere which other members are using.

    Any good recommendations for hosting services would be gratefully received. I stopped using Photobucket and haven’t replaced yet. Think it’s about time I did.

    After Photobucket i started using Postimage which for someone with no clue like me is very easy to use.

    Do these allow more than 2 pics on a (Sales) thread as this is what seems to happen to me! Cheers, John B4
