Title: How to add photos of my layout?
Post by: 4311wade on August 08, 2023, 08:20:37 PM
Team,
Can anyone tell me how to add photos of my layout to a reply?
I get the message saying my photo size will fit but when I upload it turns red and says an error accrued notify mediator.

WHat we all do is upload the photos to a hosting site like Imgur or Flikr, then link to the photos on the hosting site.

What's the consensus of the best site to use?

For me, it's Facebook.

I use Flickr and Photobucket, mainly because I already had a bunch of stuff there not related to model railroading.

Not on Facebook.  Alternatives?

I use Imgur. I used to use Photobucket until they started charging to host. I don't like my photos being held hostage.

There are other lists of image hosting sites. I haven't used any of them.

Wade,

Don't let 'em fool you.  We are anxious to see another layout in progress. Hurry!  ;D  ;D

Regards,

Jonathan

Addendum: I used Flickr for photosharing.  Still free and reasonably user friendly.
