How'd you do that Mel?  I see a googleusercontent.com address followed by 100's of letters and numbers.

Thank you for doing that RRMel! I wasn't able to log onto my Flickr account for some reason and hoped that copying the image URL from the Google Pictures HTML backup instead of the share link they provide would do the trick. Obviously not for everyone, so my apologies.

I could see his picture I guess because I have a Google Account.  I did a copy and paste to my Blog then a standard copy and paste back to the Forum post.

 

I host all my pictures from my Google Blog since PhotoBucket did their thing.

I have a google account and a google blog.  When I do that I see the 20 lines of address code but no pic.

I have maybe 150 pics in my free Photobucket account.  This week I noticed 15% of those pics have broken links and unretrievable.

Do a right click on a picture on your blog pick the “Copy Image Location” and paste that to your Forum Post.

When PhotoBucket did their thing I downloaded all my pictures to a USB hard drive.

 

I created a page on my Blog under Pages and named it "Host".  I upload the pictures I want to post on the Forum then do the 'Copy Image Location to' the Forum post.

 

I don’t know if it will continue working like it is but after I post the picture on the Forum it stays, I can delete the picture from my “Host Page” and the pictures on the Forum stay put.

 

When I was using PhotoBucket as my Host if I made any changes to any picture the Forum posted pictures were dumped.

I seen the OP's picture using Chrome.  Photobucket seems to work better using Chrome.

And NO, I don't have any affiliation with it, other than using it.  My daughter turned me on to it.

What I miss about Fire Fox is the easy way you can take screen shots.  I haven't found that in Chrome, only different instructions on how to do it with Windows, regardless of the browser, but it's way to involving for me.

There have been a lot of pictures in the WPF thread that I have missed, until I switched.  Now everybodies picture comes up.

What version of Firefox were you using?  I’m running an old version to keep Classic View and I see all the pictures on WPF.

What ever the lastest is, I guess, I just opened it, don't know where to look to see what version it is.

Maybe I exagerated a little, about the only one I couldn't see, and that just started recently, was Rick J's (DT&I)

Under Help on the top menu it’s the bottom click.  I’m still running 56.0.2 and normally see all the pictures posted.

I'm into Firefox 65.0   But using that or Chrome for the OP's pic and copying it into my blog, I don't see the pic anywhere, though I didn't go beyond the preview view.

Windows has a new screen capture tool called Snip & Sketch, which will replace the snipping tool.

With any browser, hitting the Windows and Print Screen buttons at the same time save a screen capture in you Pictures/Screenshots folder.

[RR_Mel]

I just do a click on “Save as” that saves it to my hard drive then I upload it to my “Host” page.  Once the picture is loaded on to the Forum page I delete it off my “Host” page.  If it’s a picture that I think I’ll reuse I leave it there.

 

Some pictures are lvp file format and won’t load to the Forum server, they need to be converted to jpg.

 

The picture he posted that I reposted was an lvp file and I converted it to jpg so it would load into the Forum server.

 

Some pictures won’t let you save them, then I do the Windows Screen Capture feature.  I watch for copyrights and don’t repost them.

Mine is the same as Henry's, I just looked.  I haven't used for a while, so it updated.  Actually It says 65.0.1 ?

Mike.

[BigDaddy]

Actually mine is 65.0.2, but I resign myself to never understanding Google photos.
