Post Image: changed format problem

Post by 911hillclimber »

I know many on here use PostImage to upload images to this forum.
I have used then 100% reliably for years...
However, a few days ago their site was down for maintenance.

When is came back on a few hours later the operating 'routine' had changed. Example:

Open Post Image, Choose an image to upload to (say) DDK. Images are on my PC.
Now a large picture of the chosen image appears on the screen but NO means of selecting the mode for copy, ie formatted for image to a forum.
Now i have to right click on the large image, copy the image link, paste on and then highlight and convert to 'image' and it is all there. The simplicity of the routine previously used has gone. Have tried contacted them by their contact details but no response.

Anyone else have this issue on here at all?

Nothing has changed for me. Just used it and exactly the same as before.

True. I’ve just logged into one of Keith’s hidden postimage folders titled ‘Rubber and Restraint’ and all looks fine (might fine actually)

Ha! typical it would happen to me.
At least I know it is working as before, just why it has changed for me I'll never know, it might change back...
