Got ya, just been using Image Shack for so many years, it's habit and for us old folk, hard to break old habits 😉

 

Yep. No right or wrong way, as long as it works for ya.  But it’s nice to have options.

Absolutely is .... the more the better👍

I use the direct upload function, the forum supplies and like it a lot, even more after the PhotoBucket-disaster. What I do is to run my pics through the batch function of IrfanView, where I reduce the size of my pics to about 100-200 KB and apply my logo automatically. Works great for me.

Cheers Rob

@JeroenPeters  I hope it is ok that I tagged you on this.  

I've been getting the -200 error for a few days now and can't post any pictures.  I thought it was a sizing issue, but the pictures I'm trying to post are far less than 2MB.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Hmmm.

i always shoot pics with my iphone and immediately upload them to the forum. What platform and type of inages are you trying to upload?

Hi Jeroen,

I'm mostly taking pictures with my Android phone, opening them with the photo app in Windows to down-res to something smaller than 2MB.  These are saved as a .jpg.  This has usually worked in the past, but lately I've had the -200 error several times.

Thanks for your help!

Aaahh.. i never make them smaller. No need. But still weird. Should work fine…

I've been using my Amazon kindle fire HD 10 to download pictures

From my Nikon digital camera for a long time and had no problems.

Recently, however, Amazon "updated" their photo app on the Kindle

tablets and created a useless mess!! I couldn't load images with my

Camera anymore ! Eventually, after a mind bending struggle with this

now useless App, I discovered that I could only  get images to this "gallery"

Thing I now have on my kindle through my resizer app then go to files, select,

And put the Image on the Forum in the usual way....A real headache caused

by a useless change in the app that offered no improvement.

Something strange is going on. Here is a picture I took with my cell phone a few weeks ago, and it posts just fine.

I just changed a setting on my cell phone camera.  Seems to have worked... Changed to a lower resolution.
