Problems with Postimages?

[Brendazzle]

Is anyone else having issues getting their images to show up from Postimages?

This is two weeks in a row now that I've made a page, uploaded it, and then had other people tell me that they can't see it.

Alternately: is there another hosting site you recommend? I know imgur is a no-go

I use imgbb.com.

I also use imgbb, no issues so far!

I post my images to the forums right from my computer now and don't use a hosting site. You can just click the picture icon and upload your image.

This is the way to go if you're sharing images here at SSD. You can even upload to our gallery and share directly on other sites using the first option here in the gallery. It goes right to the image...

I'm trying to post things in the CT forum and sneak peek threads before they release. Once the products go live at 6 PM, I post in the gallery

Whose CT forum? Maybe I can check a permission to see if you can post the image directly there.

This is what I do as well. Click Insert Image icon and then just drag the image from your computer into the box. Easy Peasy.

It's mine, @Robin Carlton . She does have permissions to attach the layout image and insert directly into the post.

@Robin Carlton is there going to come a time where we can no longer use this feature? (to upload directly into the post) I feel like it's got to take a lot of space somewhere...

We just deleted the duplicate copy of our old forum / gallery this week which freed up a lot of space on our servers. If you guys are conscious of saving for web, not uploading massive file sizes (ie. keeping your images around 500-600kb each) etc. we should be fine for a long time!

And I think I will just do that now if it's easiest for you

That works awesome for me, and will save you having to use an external app/website. Thank you!
