    Could someone please explain how to post images now given that much more information seems to be required, please, in particular Instagram photos, please?

    Someone can correct me if I’m wrong here,
    since I don’t know this for a fact, but don’t think you can directly link to any images on Instagram because they have a blocker up.

    Now, if you have the URL to a picture that’s posted in the open, the forum Image Link button should still work.

    Otherwise, your next best option would be to right click, save the image to your computer and use the Attachment feature to upload the image to the forum. (Do remember before Submitting the post, do a Preview to make certain its been inserted into the dialogue box)

    Cheers Alex – the forum appears to require an image size (without units) and an Alt for the image as well as the URL.

    Yeah, those are there in the Image Link window that comes up,
    but its always worked fine whenever I’ve just cut and pasted the direct URL of the image into the line box
    and left the Alt and Size blank.

    Alright, I think I see what the problem might be, check the HTML code on the left side [ img ] its placing some blank spaces in-between the brackets, delete ’em and see what happens. The image should come up @ the auto-default for the largest size allowed. If that doesn’t work, just save the image to your computer, and use the upload Attachments feature instead.

    Thanks Alex – I noticed that glitch, and I did delete the spaces, but, as it was an Instagram image I tried to upload, it still failed. I’m pleased that I won’t have to fill-in the other boxes each time! (BTW, who’s that stunning blonde lady you posted to demonstrate the result?)
