Q: how to embed photos or memes in posts?

Embed of vids is easy, I can't seem to emded a photo, meme, etc using a URL where pic exists vs uploading to the forum which allows very limited space I exceeded a long time ago. What is your method for that?

upload photos to Imgur.com, copy the link location, paste that into the message here(or any other forums for the most part) and use [IMG] tags, IE *[img]www.xyz.com/memepic.jpg[/img]* (Remove the asterisks)

There's also links ready to copy with the [img] tags premade once you upload the photo to Imgur

I use Flikr. On the desktop version there is an option to share the photo direct. Just copy paste the link. I haven't figured out how to do it on the phone app though.

That worked, thanx. Possible NSFW, but:

I grabbed an Imgur account.

Your attempt worked, but those types of pictures are not condoned.

OK, all good. Thought pretty fit girls and guns was a thing we all agreed was a win, and no of lack of NSFW added for those not interested in such things. My bad.

PS: Why not simply put only a URL for both so only those willing and interested to click on them can see it, and no one can see them on the forums if that's an issue?
