How to upload images

NOTE.

First.
There is, currently, no limit to number of images you can upload but please bear in mind that adding a lot of images increases the bandwidth required to display the posts. I would not like to incur the costs of an upgrade to the 'pro' edition. Please try to keep your images relevant to the topic under discussion. Many thanks

Second.
Editing posts to include links, images, videos etc is much more easily done in the desktop version of the site so I would recommend using that. Mobile version is fine for plain text.

1. Click Host an image.

Hope this helps.

NB servimg.com does what it says on the tin - still images only. If you want to post video you will need to use a video hosting service such as Daily Motion, YouTube, Streamable and so on. Sorry - I can't help with setting these up.
