I see a link. When I click on the link it takes me to a pic of a CJ Laredo...

Go to images page. Slide the pointer over a picture and it should pop up with two links. Right click on the top link and select copy. Should be able to past that link into the forum message using the picture icon. If that does not work, you must be doing something weird.

Also, you cannot copy an image from someone else's page. You must open your own account, upload the pictures you want then you can copy the links associated with the pictures YOU uploaded to your own account.

I'm using Google Photos, but I'm not sure my pics are showing up here. They show up for me, but not sure if everyone else can see them.

I like it because there's no ads, it backs up straight from my phone, unlimited storage, etc. The only trick is that the URL doesn't work unless you add a little bit to the end of it. You have to add "-tmp.jpg" then it will show up.

I think. No one has verified that my pics show up here yet.

I see image of red FSJ sitting on trailer. I initially used Google pics but I have heard that only people with a Google account can see them. I have a Google account.

I can also see the red fsj on the trailer, and I too, also have a google account. I can't seem to post pics from my google photos though. I can get a link from google photos, but then to share it, I hit the "Insert image" button and paste in the link, but add -tmp.jpg to the end of the link?

For example, if I try to share this picture...

I would need to paste it into the "insert image" option like this...?
https://goo.gl/photos/VA9iQVp7yhu7S4Fx8-tmp.jpg ?

I don't know if I should be giving out advice on posting pictures. My build thread has a bunch of pictures that no one can see.

[JoggerFogger]

1. make the pic the size you want on your screen. The URL generated has the sizing built into it.
2. R-click and select "Copy URL address".
3. paste into picture linker
4. Add "-tmp.jpg" to the end.

Maybe only people with Google accounts can see the google photos?

[JoggerFogger]

Yup. Logged out of my google account now I can't see my photos.

I see a Cherokee in post #23 and I don't have a Google account. I don't think I do.

Testing...



**This is a photo from my google photo account using Kevin's directions in post #24, this seemed to work for me, I can see it at least. Still not sure if everybody can see it or not though.

[SJTD]

I sees it.

[JoggerFogger]

I see the #28 picture of the GW, and #23 with the Jeep on the dune.

I still see them when I sign out of my google account.

When I log out of my Google account I can't see my own pics. I must have a setting wrong in my Google Photos account.

So frustrating. Thanks for helping with the testing.
