I've noticed that this site is no more.

Can anyone please reccomend another free site that is suitable for transferring photos into IMG codes suitable for pasting into Forums?

Photobucket

Tried to sign-up.

They want a minimum of $5 per month (£4.10)

Fuck that. There must be an other (free) option out there.

Anyone?

Works Slateford (kinda). Not sure how to resize the pics, yet.

But will work it out, hopefully.

Cheers pal.

Seems to crop every picture to the same size. Frustratingly can't figure out how to ammend it.

Maybe you need to sign-up for extra features or something.

From the Embed codes, use BBCode full linked, but omit the second bit of code between the url brackets.

Tek, you are getting the thumbnails, rather than the full image I'm guessing.

Test. I just used Bb code full link and copied it. Seemed to work.

Just me or has it removed every single Pic and avatar we all used via Tinypic ffs?

If anyone has a good grasp of imgbb (or any other site) can they detail on this thread how to post the photos please?

Including how to make the pics full size and not just thumbnails.

Thanks.

Upload image to ImgBB, this page shows: only highlight the top part of the provided code, and paste DIRECTLY to the posting box.

to get this>

Thank you Pat.

That is very helpful for everyone.

I've GOT IT!!!

Lads, very sorry for all the disruption to the site. The demise of Tinypic has inexplicably and much to my great surprise, caused great disruption to our wee Forum.

It would seem ALL the avatars and pictures we used Tinypic for over the years are GONE.

I am obviously very disappointed about this. And a wee bit gutted, like some of you will be who have put a lot of work into this site (Like Arabchanter for example).

I am going to try my best over the coming weeks and months to get back all the photos I can on to the classic threads at least.

I will try and get back the avatars for youse. The one's I can from memory. If I can't I will give you a temporary avatar and will explain in next day or two how to post pics on IMGBB properly and/or upload/change avatars.

Sorry again, everyone.

P.S. when posting pics in the meantime i find Pat's post helpful, but i find you just need to copy the code between the SECOND http:// and jpg/png/gif. The rest of the code is inconsequential really.

We will get there. Still trying to get used to imgbb myself.

Tinypic, it is not.
