.. a test photo (screengrab of a wip Digi art).

But the choices for sharing only has
FB, Reddit, Twitter, VK, and E-mail...

How do I get it to post here in DU (once I've made mt post in the proper or new thread?

(Do I have to go premium which I'm guessing costs something.)

NO Rush 👍

1. does it give you a choice of links?

[CurtEastPoint]

2. i just did one... here are your choices. Use the highlighted one

4. What he says ☝🏼

just tap the blue gooey at the end of the line
It automatically copies, and you paste in your post here

Easy peasy

3. Use the direct link!

[electric_blue68]

5. Ty I Didn't See Any of that! But I'll take another look.

6. Aha, didn't scroll down far enough. 👍 Let's see what happens....

Ok when I clicked on "direct image"

It gives the image _ _____ etc BUT ends
in .png vs .jpeg

[Rhiannon12866]

7. If you're not sure, you can post the link and preview it, to make sure it works

[electric_blue68]

8. Ok I'll try that 👍

Let's see what happens

9. You're more than welcome.

I've been posting photos and/or videos here for a long time, but I still preview them just to be sure.

[CurtEastPoint]

11. png should work. Or gif. or jpg

[electric_blue68]

12. Ty. Yes it did

[dweller]

16. Also, if it ends in .png

Just paste the link and replace .png with .jpg

It will work
✌🏻

[electric_blue68]

18. Ok this question may sound dumb, and I am sleepy (only 3 hours) ...

But can you see the image I copied & pasted using the "direct link" instructions in post #8.

It shows up in my post as an image (and it did have a .png ending).

19. Whenever I see the .png

on my link, and post it here, and preview the post, it only shows the link … not the pic.
So I changed .png to . jpg and it shows the pic

If it works for you, good to go … it just doesn’t work for me
I can see your pic btw



✌🏻

[electric_blue68]

20. Got it. 👍 Thanks for letting me know you see it had make sure!

Don't know why it works for me.

This is totally my first photo hosting experience despite years and years of digital art making. And digital photography.
