How this forum works...

[Andrew Lenz]

PHOTOS:
You can share photos one of two ways:

A) ATTACHING. Click on "attachments" tab below, then "Add Files" then you can upload a photo. The image needs to be no larger than 5 MB. The forum software will resize the image so that it does not exceed 800x800 pixels. (If I get a sponsor to cover data storage expenses, I can raise this limit.) Note that this attaching feature does work in any forum at PBF, not just this one.

B) LINKING. Alternatively, you can upload your photo online somewhere and use the image tags by clicking on the "Insert Image" icon (it looks like a mountain) and pasting your photo URL between the two image tags.

VIDEOS:
VIDEOS MUST BE LINKED. First, upload your video to a video hosting service (not here)—typically YouTube, but it can be elsewhere—then when writing your post, click on the "Media Embed" icon (it looks like a TV), then paste your video URL between the media tags.
The YouTube app on your smartphone allows you to easily upload your video, then click the "share" icon for your video and copy the link/URL so you can paste it here.

In either case of linking, it will look something like this, where "tag" will be "img" or "media":
[tag]paste your URL here[/tag]
