Images and media can be posted in messages or directly uploaded in the 'media' tab on the menu bar.

But what if you need to find the post where the media originated?

1. Go to the media tab on the menu bar and select the image you want to view.

2. If the media originated in a post then the details will be visible, click on the link to go to the post.

3. There are several options you can also chose, like, bookmark, comment and also you can externally link the image to your social media accounts.

4. You can also search using a wildcard as discussed here @crimson image search

5. You can also place your media into 'albums' that you create if your account is eligible.

Also, some images have their EXIF location data embedded. The forum software is set to remove this when an image is uploaded but sometimes does not. It is up to the individual account holder to ensure that they remove this information (if they wish) prior to submitting an image for upload to the site.

Images can now be rotated in posts by the author and by site admins.

  • Click on rotate at the bottom of your post.

  • Then select the option to correctly display your image.
  • Finally select submit to complete.

  • You'll then be returned to your post with the correct orientation of your image displayed.
 
As mentioned elsewhere on the forum. Please if you are posting from outside of the community, ie if you’re scraping images from anywhere else on the net and you don’t have copyright then please try and link back to the original source.

Also if possible please credit the originator.

With regard to YouTube links, they are embedded with the owners information and when played either in the forum or via a link off this platform the owner is credited with a “view”

When attaching images to posts. If you just attach them they will not always be displayed.

To get around this then please click on the thumbnail option on the image.

This will embed the image in the post and not just attach it.
