blonde poker forum

How do I post a picture that I've uploaded to Google Photos from my phone?

I can open the photo, click the 'share' symbol, get the link and paste it on to a blonde thread, but I doesn't show up as a picture.

Post the link and we'll have a look

does it have an s at the end of http?  Remove it if it does.

Oh, almost forgot.............

wait for it....................









Have you tried turning it on and off again ;)

This is the link it generates.

I can't remember for sure but I think when I've used google photo's for that I've just opened the image in a tab by itself and then used that url to create the link - it's not really a problem that it's huge when you're just copying and pasting

I would take off the s for the https though

always drop the s after http, as you would on here when putting a you tube video up

try that, it works for you now?

 I can do that from my laptop but I can't seem to do it from my phone removing the S doesn't help

Did you do this from your phone Jon?

I've just been having a look - it looks like you "should" be able to do it from the phone, but like you I can't see "how" you'd do it. Not sure if it's a google problem or an android one.

I'll post a picture of a pint for the first person to solve it.

I'm beginning to think it's not possible but I'm reluctant to believe it.

Apart from Jon, has anyone else tried and failed?

Tom I use Dropbox and Photobucket. When I click the share tag I get an option to "copy link to clipboard" then paste into where ever you want to post it.

Thanks Kev. I use Photobucket too, but the Google pictures thing is pretty cool, it stores all your pics with no limit on space and makes them easy to find.

For example, I uploaded over 4000 photos last night, this morning I wanted to find a particular one so I searched for 'man hat' and it retrieved all the pictures I have of men in hats.

It works with all sorts of commands, I searched 'Settee' and It found about 30 pics containing settees.

It would be great if I could just post pictures to the forum from it using my phone.

Yes.  I dont know why.  You need a url ending in.jpeg(or jpg I can't remember) not a short url but I dint know why your phone does it.

At least you tried mate.

It's at times like this you discover who your friends are....

Download the dropbox app. You can then copy/drag the photo's you want to post. The space is limited but if they are just copies you can delete them to make space.

Thanks Kev, but I really don't wantyto have to upload pictures that are already uploaded.

Ok I used the method mentioned and just the link posted.

I've found a very clunky work around.

Put phone in desktop mode.

Find pic.

Copy link to notebook.

Click link.

When pic opens long press to generate URL.

C&P into thread.

However photobucket gives you the option to copy the img link.

Clunky method does work, but it's a pain in the aris.

Love old pics, is that you Tom?

The photobucket method is very quick. You can set it to auto upload from your phone camera to the app.

Click photo, click share, click copy link, click img link. Ready to paste into the post. Each click auotomatically takes you to the next one.

The Google photos app won't allow uploads to Photobucket Kev.

Yes it's me in the pic. It's from my 'men in hats' collection.

This is a link from one I uploaded to Dropbox.

Same problem with Dropbox. I can link from my laptop but not from my phone.

Looks like it's back to Photobucket via my gallery.

Lordy, where did you find that?

How many years ago was that taken?
