Help posting pictures

Need to post a message with pictures. Sorry but I can’t seem to figure it out. Pay pictures are on my iPad in the Photos app. Please make the directions simple as I am a real amateur.

Thanks for the help.

I use an app called Tapatalk. Instructions there. You may need a certain number of posts before you can post pictures.

1. Create an account on Imgur
2. Save/upload pictures to Imgur (your posts can be private on Imgur if you want)
3. Copy the URL for your picture once uploaded to Imgur
4. Open up a reply box on TRF, as you normally do to post something
5. In the message box type the following:

Please don’t get me wrong but it is really not a very encouraging way to upload pictures to a forum. What is the reason that direct uploads via the board SW is not possible?

It’s a free forum (though donations are always welcome). I’m sure you can find a way to make it a good experience for you.

Is this a comment to my first or an answer to my second sentence?

Anybody can upload images directly to the Forum.

Click on the attachment paperclip, find your file, click upload - done.

You do need to ensure that your files meet the maximum size allowed for the image type.

Says my files are too big and I have to manually resize. Do not know how to do that, use Tapatalk with mixed success.
