sorry I m not very skilled but would be extremely thankful for any advice which free picture hosting service would work for chronotrader? I did use picload.org in the past - but it seems not to be accepted from ct any more. photo bucket want to charge me 5.-$ a month for hosting :-(

Chronotrader says, that URL of an image must start with http:// and end with an image file extension like .gif, .jpg, .jpeg or any other common Interent image format. For example, http://mydomain.com/images/photo.jpg.

I did not find a free service with these preconditions - can you help?
Thank you in advance for any answers!

 

Imgur.com always seemed easy to use, just make sure you set your privacy settings to what you need.

 

yes I tried but it created links like: https://imgur.com/a/mnMiAgL
This link does not start with: http:// and does not end with jpg.
So I m unfortunatly not able to make my picture visible inside the ad - I can just post the link - thats my problem....

 

Tried Photobucket? I seem to recall that had posting / linking options.

 

There is an option to link as a jpeg, it's on the right of screen after you load the photo (not at a computer to check but I think it's the option called "direct link" ). The https might be a problem, but could be cured as simply as removing the S from the link. I'll have a look later regardless.

 

when I log in to phptobucket they want to charge me 5.-US$ a month :-((

 

thank you for trying to help and having a look - I did not manage up to now...

 

OK, here you go. Copy the "direct link" from your Imgur hosted image, paste the link and remove the "s" from https ....

Happy to help. (Shoulda posted a link to a Seiko).
