Hi I haven't been on the forum for a while - grandchildren keeping me away from the shed !

I have recently found a lovely brass and copper oil tin that I intended posting a photo of on the forum for you guys to I.D.

However when I visited Imgur to host the photo only to find that UK users are no longer welcome to use their service.

Please could anyone suggest how I could post a picture of this little beauty on the forum that's UK friendly ?

Save the photo to your phone and reduce rhe size ro around 40%.  Then try posting it by photo file.
You might say I have a tool collecting problem....

When you post a photo using the attachments link you  sn choose to post from your photos.  The photo would be in a jpeg or similar format.

Hi Rusty! Sorry for the late reply. You should be able to attach an image directly to your messages. I've included some screenshots from my phone to illustrate what I think Yadda was getting at.

If you're interested in finding another third party image-hosting site like Imgur, I found a Reddit post here where users from the UK have suggested a few alternatives.
Somehow there's always someone who can do things thought impossible, simply because they do not realize that they should be incapable of the achievement.
