What do you use to share pics? I miss how easy it was with Photobucket
I'm using flickr but can only post links

I put them all in a page in Blogger (google photos) and copy links off of that. I don't use very much anyway.

Marc,
Try adding .jpg to the end of the link inside of the bracket. If that doesn't work, which with your link there I tried and It doesn't, try to right click on the image is IN your browser in whatever Google app you're in, and hit the view image tab on the context menu, then past that link in the brackets. Other than that I suggest Imgur for quick image hosting. Similar to photobucket. It worked Imgur works like photo bucket, which is great Thanks a bunch Marc..

I have two issues with imgur. The first one is that when I upload a pic to imgur, there's no way to arrange my pics or control distribution. From what I understand, you essentially chuck it into the pool of other pictures and they give you a link.... but your pic can now turn up on random searches or be displayed on their webpage. I don't like that. Second one is their rules Also, don't use Imgur to host image libraries you link to from elsewhere, content for your website, advertising, avatars, or anything else that turns us into your content delivery network. If you do – and we will be the judge – or if you do anything illegal, in addition to any other legal rights we may have, we will ban you along with the site you're hotlinking from, delete all your images, report you to the authorities if necessary, and prevent you from viewing any images hosted on Imgur.com. We mean it. SourceWith my blogger and Google photos, I am in control (slightly) of my pics. It definitely doesn't turn up randomly on some site sharing "cool pics." While my photos are essentially in one pool in Google photos, I am able to arrange/sort my pics via my blogger pages, sort of like folders in Photobucket. So while imgur is cool for the odd pic or so, I prefer my method so I can sort my pics into Simpit pics, Falcon 4 pics, Random Useless Memes pics, etc.

you can make albums in a few formats that allow titles, captions, links, and a header explanation but you could also just use it to group your pics intro relevant subsections (those don't count towards the 400 limit either). How do you do this??

How do you do this?? Once you're logged into your account, if you hover the cursor over your user name a dropdown menu appears, Albums is the second option on the list, but I don't see options for different formats anymore. Here's an example of an imgur album I made for the *sealed Hall pots I make https://imgur.com/a/WkQtw At the bottom of the same dropdown is where the settings are, where you can choose to set your albums private or public but by default are private though I'm not sure about general images now, something I never concerned myself with before since it was always a way for me to share pics. Judging by views, I don't think my general images have been circulated randomly, but I'm just shooting from the hip on that *I now use A1324 sensors instead of A1302... 90deg electrical swing vs 180 so better suited for joys
