Posting pics from my PC

[isitmeorwhott?]

I thought we used to be able to post images right off our PC before . So now do I have to post any clip that I have made or punny saying with a picture or some of my own PC artwork on the web?. I really hate facebook and I started an account the other day just so I could post some of my pics and stuff on this site, and ouch! cancelled it when I saw faces with names I did not care to see. Jamean?
Am I missing how to do something? Besides there are some thing's that I'd like to post for the first time here ya know. "You've seen it here first folks!." I just want to know what the easiest way to do this is.

I don't do FB and never will. I use Photobucket for picture storage.....

I think we could do it in the past, using upload attachment, but it doesn't work now. The only way is to upload your file to some hosting site, as Serene says Photobucket is one way. Skydrive might do it too, which is a Hotmail account I think, but seems a simple process. Up to now I've used Photobucket but it might be possible to find a backup site that can serve both purposes, it's a bit of a pain having to upload to Photobucket just so I can post it here.

(Just tried converting a jpg to pdf and uploading that, but no good. Just says "The extension pdf is not allowed".)

We have only ever been able to post a picture from Photobucket or some similar host. You can upload an avatar from your PC but that's it.

We can post viable links again though, that has been turned back on.

Damn you, photobucket!... I was going to vent this elsewhere, but I just vented out over there so:
All i have for the web is my droid, and for not too much a month ($25), I thought I had alot. Now photobucket has taken away the ability to edit from the mobile site. If I want to post a pix for just a short period, I can't delete it till I go somewhere (library). I can't use captions, the Next/Back and Go to page_ don't work right anymore. I complained last week and they emailed me, but I must say, I'm not the sort of robotic sheep they think I am, and for such a major change with all the usual glitches, they could handle things better.
... Peace.

I'm pretty sure I have uploaded from my computer. I remember it because for a while I had been using the photobucket method then learnt that there was a simpler way. Since one of the virus attacks it is no longer possible. Anyway, we can't now.

Did a quick Google search - found http://imgur.com/ which looks simple, but have only just tested it now.

Nice test, blu-fish. Bow down, ye strange fish kaboodles, before the Son of Cod.
Are those sites mobile/droid friendly?
... Peace.

Thanks people I will try photo bucket. The only thing I didn't like is they wanted to give me GIMP on top of the download. I Had some ptoblems with the GIMP before. However I will reasearch. Thanks again!

No idea.

I read that these might work on mobile/droid http://www.flickr.com/ , http://picasa.google.com/

Thnx buzi-blu. ... Imho, the web still hasn't completely caught on to the fact that a very high number of users surf almost exclusively with their cell phones. .... On second thought, what am I thinking?!
... Peace.
