Here, from memory (still works, I'm 76)

Go to https://postimages.org

Select a size for the result. Usually "do not resize" or 640 by 480.

On a mobile device, click on "upload"
Then pick one or more from your photos.

On a desktop, drag the image to the web page.

Wait a bit for the upload.

Select "direct link"
Copy the link.

Paste into your DU reply or OP.

Looking forward to your posts.

Problem is, it's often really slow.
And to post here, I use HTML full linked and copy only the src=" ...... " part.

Worse, when I go to preview an image, I sometimes get "You need to create an account". No idea why it says that.

But it works.

I just find postimages faster, more reliable and one step less to post here. (I post a lot of images)

I also love the first one because my Sophie dog does the exact same thing with her yellow spiky ball. Cmon let’s play! They must teach that in Retriever 101 class.
