Oh wait, in PB, I see only 4 options....(I am in 8.1 on IE) Email, Direct, HTML or IMG. I did use the last one.

The IMG option.
Why are you still using IE?

The IMG option. Why are you still using IE? IE is the only thing that is working on this junk rebuilt computer. FF and Chrome keep crashing.
IE has serious scrolling problems-when I scroll down or up, I get all kinds of garbage and I have to keep hitting refresh.
Can't afford a new computer and my computer guy says Windows 10 is really bad. I need him to be able to fix whatever goes wrong, and he can't fix 10.

Not clear on what's new? I've never had to use the insert img box. From Imgur, I just c/p'd the BBC code (for forums) directly here. That has always worked.

Not sure I follow, IDK what Preview tab is. I go to Imgur, 4th tab BBCode (forums) & copy/paste into Quick Reply. That has always worked (or at least for a very long time) & then I click 'post quick reply'. Does that answer your question?

That is hysterical StayTuned. I laughed so hard I literally cried. Keep watching. The squirrel launchers are even funnier.

The other ones are funny, but I love that one where he keeps going round and round and round and round.
That was one determined squirrel.

I see, zoe. You're using imgur and it offers the bbcode. That's why you can do it. Not all picture hosting sites have bbcode that the user can copy. For those of us on PB, there is no "bbcode" option so this new plugin works for us.

But it's good to know now why you never had any picture issues!

It 'resizes' but it does not compress. Resizing images should just be a setting in your browser. The pic settings that kill me is the lack of compression. A 2 meg pic that's 'resized' to 480x640 is just as big as one that's 2497x1998 and is just as slow to download.
With my connection, I've had to turn off all graphics here.

You'll have to host the pictures somewhere to post. Imgur is free and easy to use. Photobucket is free too, but it was wonky last week. I don't know if it's fixed yet or not.

Thank you Val. I will try Imgur as it seems a lot of you are using that.

I use both. Imgur is my backup when PB is down.

I use my iPad, so I don't host anywhere. Tap a talk works for me.

I have tried for 2 hours to post a cake for Shirley. PB keeps crashing. Imgur won't load the pic. Tried this POS computer, laptop, iPad, cell phone.
Can't figure out iPad or cell to save the picture to where I can get it on here.
What other picture hosting sites can I try?

Can anyone shed some light on how to post photos from your phone? Did I miss that post somewhere?

I tried that too. Got the pic on my phone but when I save it, I can't find it. Wanted to send to the gallery, but that isn't an option.
It took an hour for the cake pic to load onto imgur, but not I can't bring it here.
