Uploading photos to the forum issue
« on: September 12, 2016, 08:08:48 pm »
I'm trying to put my car in the for sale section and I'm having issues uploading photos via Photobucket.
NO matter what image share url I copy and paste the forum keeps giving me this error message.

*Please enter direct link to image e.g http://daz.co/images/thankyou.jpg
DO NOT ENTER

I've tried all the links for sharing but keep getting the same error message. Any ideas?

Cheers

Gulf

I have 10 photos to add to the for sale advert. Photo bucket only gives me 5 options to share and every one of them brought up an error message. The interthewebby says click on the IMG option but it wasn't there. My office is next to the IT geeks so I'll rope them guys in. Cheers.

Managed it.. My issue was sharing the full album. I had to click each photo individually then copy link and paste in ad x10.

cheers.

Now buy my GTI.    :P
