Ted, what works for me [some times] is I send the pic from my phone to my puter e-mail, download pic, upload to Photobucket and transfer to this site.

I used to follow that exact path jeter, when I was using IE. Now that I switched from IE when I upload the pictures to Photobucket I cannot click on the picture anymore to paste it into my posts here on this site.

I've even switched back to IE on my new computer at home but I'm still having the same issues. I first ran into this when I tried inserting pictures of my most recent trip to Four Winds when I hit the two royals and aces, 2/3/4's several times as well that outing.

You should try using Firefox, Ted. Works wonders for me! Seriously though, I'm glad you had a great night at your local fishing hole. Next time you get a monster hit, instead of shuffling yer feet under the machine, you can do one better by standing on top of the chair and busting out the "funky monkey dawg"!!

I took this from a past forum post. Hope this helps.

I also second Sea Lion, you can use Firefox and/or Google Chrome without much repercussions to what kind of system you are using.

Good hit! I want to see it so I'll provide you instructions.

Prerequisite question for you: Can you get the image from your phone or digital camera onto your computer or tablet If you can get the image on your computer Mac/Windows/GNU Linux

1. A simple site I use for my screenshots, I go to http://postimg.org/

2. Click on browse and the web browser will allow you to browse through your file system for the image file.

3. Set the following options

Resize: to 640x480 for message boards
Image content: Family safe

4. Click Upload it!

5. After the image finishes uploading, find the "Direct Link" section and click on Copy to Clipboard.

6. Now go back to this forum and then do the following

a. Type the following and do not include the lowercase 'x'

b. Paste the link by doing Control + V, Option + V, right click and select paste

c. Type the following and do not include the lowercase 'x'

e.g. exlucding the 'x': [IMGx]http://s5.postimg.org/x824qkm5z/dwb4dplusace.png[/IMGx]

Let me know if you are using Windows or Mac or Linux. I am proficient in all three so that I can provide specific instructions if you are still stuck.

Thanks Sea Lion, the "funky monkey dawg?" I might regret asking this but what part of the country do you call home?

[Tedlark]

Thanks for doing the legwork alpax, I'll give it a shot when I get home and not working off my tablet.

I first ran into this when I tried inserting pictures of my most recent trip to Four Winds when I hit the two royals and aces, 2/3/4's several times as well that outing.   Here's a question....instead of IE just what browser are you actually using????The problem(s) you seem to be describing are the type usually easily resolved....either you have a faulty computer or you are technically incompetent.Either way, it's not looking good for ya Ted.....Again, why not just email the pics to Jeter (i can vouch he is trustworthy) or any other of your friends here.....and let him post them?   Who cares who does it at this point?  I am sure most people here just want to see your latest amazing examples of good fortune......I know I do!   edited to add:   I am NOT doubting the veracity, I have no reason to NOT believe he actually hit these things....yet.All Ted's good fortune in Joliet and the other plots he gambles out in his region simply reconfirm my ...."OPINION".....that AC is totally, TOTALLY off its rocker when it come to VP.   Other regions and markets, while also experiencing decline and loss of business, still have a modicum of fairness remaining that allow a few lucky people to still win....AC does not.

Whatever DaBurglar, where's that "sour grapes" emoticon when I need it. I wonder how I'd do if I were to go to Atlantic City for a weekend???

Thanks Sea Lion, the "funky monkey dawg?" I might regret asking this but what part of the country do you call home?I'm originally from South California, but now I call South Neevada my home. Or lets just say, Las Vegas.

Whatever DaBurglar, where's that "sour grapes" emoticon when I need it. I wonder how I'd do if I were to go to Atlantic City for a weekend???I'd love to see you come to AC, and would be very interested indeed to see how you do there.....I am 100% serious.    Jeter and perhaps a few others here could also show up and act as a buffer ....  if you really are seriously interested in doing this please continue, but otherwise please direct yourself to the thread I am starting in Anything and Everything.
