You need to copy the post link, press the “img” button and then preview it before you actually post it to make sure it works

Click the camera icon in the imgur app to upload photo. I change it to hidden instead of public. Click view. Copy the link (it should start with i.img..). On TD, click img and paste the link. Preview post then submit.

This isn't the most detailed and I probably left something out, but hopefully helps.

Imgur blows. It's slow as shite and you have to double tap to find the correct link URL. It defaults to a URL that doesn't work. I use this site which is fast and simple. I don't think they have an app so I just keep a tab open to their site.

Can you call back to old photos on that site? I like imgur because I have a library that makes photos easy to find

I am probably going to say the same thing the others said.

Using a PC

1. Open Imgur. Your icon should appear in the upper right corner.

2. Position the cursor over your icon and a drop down menu will appear. Select/click on Images, which will take you to a new screen.

3. Click on Add Images on the new screen. It will take you to a smaller screen and you will select either either Browse (what I do), or you will drag a photo onto that screen, or type in the URL address. When you select your photo, it will take you back to the previous screen and a small version of your photo will show up in the upper left corner.

4. Click on that photo, or which ever one in your images file you want and a new screen will show up with a large version of your photo and a number of options on the right side. You want to select/copy the Direct Link option, which will copy the URL.

5. On your TD Reply, select img in the location where you want your photo to fall and then paste the Direct link you copied off Imgur. Hit enter and the ing instruction line will appear on your post.

6. That is it. You can select Preview if you like to see what the print and photo look like and to make changes if you want.


On your cell phone? I don't know - I do not own a cell phone. For years and years, when my cell phone rang, it was bad news from work that they expected me to solve right away. When I retired, I threw my cell phone in the trash. Never have regretted that a single time.

This is the easiest and only way that someone that isn’t very tech savvy like myself has been able to figure out.
