Title: How do I .....
Post by: doug on Jul 14, 2019, 09:17:41
     I have taken an image of the Moon and Jupiter conjunction last night and would like to put it on the Forum. My Flickr account states that it`s full up and I need to purchase the Pro account, which I am unwilling to do. I also have a Imjur account, but don`t know how to get images onto my account on this. If anybody can advise me how to solve the problem. I would be grateful for assistance. I used to do it on Flickr and get a code which when copied and pasted, did the trick, but Imjur doesn`t seem to to that. Is there another site that I can use that does the same thing?

     All advise  gratefully received.

     Thanks, Doug.

Upload it to the OAS website Gallery Doug.  Then link the URL in the usual way.

     Thanks Carole. But I can`t even log in to the Gallery. It`s been years since I used it and it`s forgotten me... :roll: What a bummer.....

I use Astrobin for hosting and uploading my images and also the OAS gallery.

I have a flicker account but don't even know how to link from there, so you are one up on me.
I suggest you get in touch with Klitos and get your gallery login up and running again. 

Don't know anything abut Imgur though Duncan might know.

Hmmm, hang on a minute Doug, I have a vague memory of uploading something for you a few years ago onto the OAS gallery and I recall the password was something to do with a plane - does that ring a bell?

Thanks, Doug.
