Must be something on your end. People upload images here every day.

Welcome to OCC! When I add a picture, I click the paper clip to open the upload popup. Then I choose a picture from my phone or computer and click upload, no resizing, compressing, nothing. It takes a sec and magically resizes itself. It made This 2mb cellphone pic 22kb automatically.

Thanks! I'm testing that workflow on this post. Other forums I've been on do not auto-resize so I was not expecting OCC to. Thanks again.

Replying in regards to my image posting issues, should anyone run across this thread from a search, and to complete the information loop. After some research of other images on here, there is a slight difference in the HTML syntax to get it to work (at least for me). I use OCC from a variety of platforms (Windows, Mac, & iOS) and have found this to be my only "fix".

Using the paperclip icon and uploading the photo as an attachment inserts the photo at the end of a post and in a box of its own.

Clicking the yellowish photo icon and entering the image URL in the popup window only displays a broken photo link image, and not my image (again, for me).

I found the below code to work for embedding images into a post and retaining their position in line should you want text above and below the image. Yes, your image's URL will be entered twice... once for the image, once for the URL link.

I have found that photobucket writes in this syntax natively, when you copy the "IMG" code under the "Share This Photo" section of the website.

Hope this helps!

When I post a picture, I click "Post Reply" under the last post of a thread.

Then I scroll down to and click "Manage Attachments".

A pop up will come up and in it I click "Choose File".

Another pop up, in it I find the pic I want to attach and double click it.

Set of numbers/letters show up in the "Manage Attachments" pop up box next to where I clicked "Choose File".

Then I click "Upload".

The little thing in the corner goes round and round for a bit.

When it stops, there is a number in the space that says "Current Attachments" and the same number shows up in the original "Manage Attachments" space in the thread.

Then click "Submit Reply"

Wow that sounds like a lot...

Not really all that bad though.

The reason your image didn't work is because it wasn't a direct link to the image, it was a link to the dropbox share page.

In order for the IMG tag to work, it needs to be a direct link to the image. I'm not familiar with dropbox, but in other systems it would be called an embed link. You do not need both the URL and IMG tags, the URL tag simply makes is clickable.
