As a backup, try posting using "Post Images"

https://postimages.org/


You will need a JPG file. ...no need to log in. Click on "Chose Images" and navigate to where you've stored the JPG file.



Select "Hotlink For Forums" by clicking on the icon on the RHS



Paste ( Edit Paste or Cntrl-V) in the post where you want the picture to appear.

For IMGUR try :

Select this page : https://imgur.com/

On the top left corner click "new post"

On the next page click "Choose photo/video"

This will open a view to your PC file structure: click on the photo you wish to upload then click the open button..

The photo will be pasted into IMGUR.

Now right click on the photo and select "open image in new tab."

A new tab will open up. Select this URL on the menu bar.

Go to your post in Lemon fool and type ctrl V, this will paste the link to your photo.

Preview your photo and text, then if satisfactory, post it.

Remember, photos need to be 1200 pixels high, maximimum, you may need to resize your images.

Phew, going to have a lie down now. I can post screen grabs, for a fee.

Thank you! I'll try both next time I need it.

After uploading the photo to imgur click the "..." at the top right of the image and select Get share links.

In the popup that appears click the Copy Link button against the BBCode (Forums) line.

You can then paste directly into the TLF post you are creating. The line will already include the [img] tags.
