You can now upload a picture directly in to your post!

Candleshoe yes was doing that but the hyperlink isn't working so figured I must be copying the wrong link or otherwise doing something wrong.

It's working, it just takes to you the post within the thread, rather than just the post.

Just create your link using the #1 in the first post of the thread (or even by right-clicking on the subject line in the threads list)

Thus you'll get a link like: You can now upload a picture directly in to your post!

That's GORGEOUS! I have never taken a good fireworks picture.

Thanks, Candleshoe! I have always been jealous of some of the other shots I have seen posted, and I finally got one for myself!

Took this old dog a few attempts at re-sizing, but it worked. Looks like I still need to shrink the picture a bit.

Playing on the test board, I see how to make a link like the above. Instead of showing long web address, it shows words, like above (awesome! Easy & I didn't know how to do that before) It's the title of the thread linked to. . . Anyone know how to make the hyperlink words say something else? Like when some posters simply say go "here" for more info, and the "here" is a hyperlink?

Just edit the text part once you've pasted it all into your message.

The format of a link is:
[ URL='<this-is-the-http-link>']Description words go here, you can edit this bit[ /URL]

Try this... (I can't test it)
On this page http://mashable.com/2010/08/31/iphone-camera-tips-tricks/
#4 shows how to copy an image from safari. (Hopefully there's a way in Gallery to also 'copy image')

When you come to the post reply box, try to long press and see if you get a 'Paste Image' option.

guessing this might work, let us know if those steps do work!

Of course, just go to the website from your iPhone browser, login, and post just like you would from your computer.

You aren't trying to use the mobile app are you? If so, that has been discontinued, you need to use the website via your phone's browser.

Dang! I didn't really care for the mobile app but it was nice to at least have access on the smaller phones that you could read. But lets check out this cool new way to post photos.

 

[wildernessDad]

Testing.

[Candleshoe]

d'oh! good catch. I thought the question was "how can I post a picture" which she didn't ask at all.

 

[HopperFan]

Am also testing posting a photo. If this works I can overlook all the other quirks I'm adjusting to!!!

OKAY not what I expected .....................back to the instructions.
