I was gonna respond a few times with some funny pics to a couple of threads. But for the life of me I can't figure out how to do it. I see the pic url in the reply area and even tried copy paste but it's not happening. What's the secret?
You can tell by the fact it says "jpeg" at the end of the URL.
Many pictures that are not jpegs will not work on TER
Actually I just used google images several ways. I tried copy and paste, screen shot them the use my phone to try and put them on. Nothing worked my normal ways. Guess I'm a little internet computer illiterate. But I'll check out y'all's ways.
Thanks

If not, they won't post. That's what providers have to do to post their pics in ads. Upload them to imagecoast.com and use those URL's.

Find the pic you want to paste into your post. On a PC, right click the image and "copy image location."
Paste that link in the "picture URL" box BUT MAKE SURE IT IS A VALID FILE FORMAT.
Here's a pic with this "image location" http://www.publicdomainpictures.net/pictures/90000/t2/fuwadera-shinkuro-1402575074B0t.jpg pasted into the picture URL box.

I'm usually on my iPhoney. Is that a little different. I would assume so since it's a mobile device. Or can I even post pics on mobile devices?
Valid file formats are jpg, gif, png and maybe some others.

The photo must be posted on the internet at a location that you can link directly to the photo. imagecoast is designed for this
Yes, it is very different.
TER does not host image files. Image files take up too much disc storage space and require a lot of bandwidth to send. Other websites provide image hosting services (imagecoast, pinterest, ...).
Your post can contain a link (a string of characters: not a lot of disc storage space). When someone clicks on your post on their browser, TER sends them the TER info (TER template, TER icons, TER text, your words) but their computer requests the picture from the image hosting site.
The picture must be on a publically accessible site (imagecoast, etc.) so the request for the picture can be fulfilled. Your iPhone is not set up as a server (and you probably don't want it to be) so a request for a pic on your phone (or any private, secure website) will generate some kind of error: File Not Found; Unable to Access File Location; ....
From your iPhone, you can upload a pic to your own account on imagecoast or other file sharing website. Then link the imagecoast picture URL into your TER post.
Find a picture on google. Right click, "copy image location" and make sure it is the actual picture file (jpg, gif, png) and some some script or other non-image url (html, asp, ...). Paste that into your TER post. Leave your iPhone out of it altogether.
