Help! I can't post pictures... [View all]

I was trying to copy and paste a photo of the cellist Hauser here on DU and no matter what I tried to copy off of his celebrity page I could not do it. I googled "cellist Hauser" and tho he has a lot of celeb. photos of himself (looks to die for) I could not copy/paste.

What am I doing wrong?

Try using Postimage: LakeArenal Jan 2023 #1

will that show on my options? CTyankee Jan 2023 #3

There is a prompt to upload. It will ask where you want to get the pic. LakeArenal Jan 2023 #6

DU does not host pictures so copy and paste only works if you save on your device. MichaelSoE Jan 2023 #2

I don't see that option. where do I find it? CTyankee Jan 2023 #4

Right click on a photo and one of the options for images will be "copy image url " or you can chose MichaelSoE Jan 2023 #7

You can do it without saving a picture to a photo hosting service like Postimage Ocelot II Jan 2023 #5
