Testing................................. .
It worked for me....maybe your individual pics are over the MB limit for this Forum.
And.......Photobucket has been driving me nuts/locking up/downloading a 2 minute video takes one hour/then it refuses to post the video in my Library.
What website are you using to store your pics/video?

I keep trying. I copy the link from photo bucket, no luck it says to use a valid url. I tried to drop the photo in, no luck. I liked the way it use to be. Copy the link and paste. Am I missing something?

They have changed the photo system. I can upload photos on my iPad directly to the forum. There is no longer a need to use a third party photo hosting service like Photobucket.
When I touch the little photo icon it tells me to browse my computer, then I select the photo I want and then I upload it. Easy-Peasy

Give tinypic a try.

Very simple, and if they want you to watch one of their little commercials for a password to continue, dont waste your time. Just type a couple of letters in the box and proceed.

You must be missing something. I just went to Photobucket, copied an IMG link and posted a picture the same way I have for years and years. Not sure what change you are talking about, other than the fact that in addition to photobucket theres 2 other easy ways to post pictures here, the paperclip attachment possibly the easiest. They are detailed in the picture posting thread in the stickys on the main page.

The point I and others are trying to make is you do not need Photobucket or any other photo hosting site. You can now load photos from your local computer to the Corvette Forum directly.
Personally, I never had to use Photobucket as I have my own website. I would upload photos to my website and then on the forum, provide the URL of the photo I wanted to display. The new method is much simpler because you eliminate all those extra steps. Queries about uploading using Photopucket are almost as common as brake and oil threads. There is a reason for that - it is a complex operation.

I'll leave this thread up awhile longer, and then Ill move it to the Help section where they are usually sent.

Thanks to all. I did get it figured out. It was on my end. I was using the wrong link on Photobucket. Se my tread "The Things We Do To Work On Theses Cars" in the general forum section. I was trying to post the pictures.
