I use Photobucket. If you copy the direct link from your account, it should work fine.

If you still haven't figured this out, on imgur, if you go to an image, you get like 4 link choices

you want the direct link choice

TD does not host photos on the internet, but if the photo is already on the internet then you only need the link to post it. What this means is the photo on your phone needs to be uploaded to an image hosting site and then the [img] button can be pressed and the link posted in the box. It sounds complicated by once you understand how it works it is easy.

If you google search a photo you can right click and copy the link and post, it takes only seconds after a little practice

Fwiw, if you're just looking to post a topical pic or gif in a thread - just click on the picture from the bing or whatever search page - copy/paste into TD, and you can skip all the hosting stuff.

Here's a Homer example from an iphone:

Step1:


Step 2:


Step 3:


I used Tinypic (free, no registration) to post the screengrabs but the gif below is from giphy and required no hosting. I hope this saves folks some time.

If it's your picture, postimage.org is the best site.

Here's how I do it from my computer to Imgur:


Login to Imgur

Click the green Add Images button:




This will bring up this dialog box. Click on Browse




The following dialog box will open. Find the location where you have the image on your computer, click on the image and the click Open.




This image will upload to your Imgur account and display like this:




Click on the image you want and this dialog will appear. Click the blue Copy button for Direct Link indicated by the yellow arrow:




To paste the link to the image you just copied, click on the img button.




This will bring up the following dialog box. Paste the link in it by pressing Ctrl and V simultaneously or right-click in the dialog box and select Paste. Click the OK button and you will see the link in the Message. Click the Preview button to see the image before you post it and then click the Submit button and your image will be posted.
