You are just an Applicant

Once the modulators give you full privileges, you will be able to upload photos And send PM(private messages)

I finally just figured that out. Thanks. How long does that normally take? I think it's close to 24 hours now.

Almost

While Imgur will let you click for message board format, we don’t use that

Just the url is needed - [img] and such will prevent posting.

So, up above the area where you type your post is a “picture” of two mountains and the sun. Click on that and put just the url in there.

Will prevent it from working.

Once you have the url properly formatted in the text area, just post it

If you know html it does take the <img src= method of posting. Don’t surround the image url with quotes ”example” - use src=https://example

. Looks like they broke the proper way of posting HTML.

Post the SRC without quotes.

Well it looks like they took the HTML method away

When i get accepted will i be able to post an image from my laptop? Thanks.

MsMorrisine

Yes

It’s just drag and drop

You’ll also be able to do it from your phone

Actually the html method works as I’ve edited above

It might take a week before someone gets around to it

Your lighting could be a bit brighter

But obviously the big thing is focus

Also,
1. Crop out the extra blank space around the photo and you can fit more coin on the page
2. Post the obverse and reverse either separately or stacked on top of each other. The software limits width but not height.

I think I'm better off to try the pics outside. No matter where I go in the house the lighting is not that bright. See as I can I can test it here. Thanks.
