    Almost identical to what I do.
    1. Open your account on IMGUR
    2. select "images" in the drop down under your account (upper right)
    3. drag your photo file to the field that says "drop images here"
    4. Once it loads, click on the image you want to post
    5. find "direct link" from the list of options and hit the "copy" button.
    6. go to your BA post and select the photo icon.
    7. paste the link in and the image should appear.

    If someone posts an image that does not show up for me (like yours), 9 times out of 10 it is postimage. (The other 10% is people trying to use Google photos.)

    Or FaceBook . Either because of privacy settings, or because Facebook Fence is on, which prevents the FaceBorg from tracking.

    I think we are brothers from different mothers. Your statement reminds me of another saying seemingly applicable to phones: "When the only tool you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail".

    I did originally, then the whole thread became controversial with the *weird* implications. :smile:

    A tip for posting Dropbox pics on forum posts: when you copy the link from Windows Explorer or from the Dropbox app on your phone, and paste it into the image link box on BA, it ends with "dl=0", so replace that with "raw=1". The dl=0 causes it to go to a Dropbox preview screen rather than embedding the image like raw=1 does.

    Is there a way to upload directly from my shitty android LG phone to BA?

    Boomer vs tech = not a fair fight.
