Easy way to add photos to classracer from iCloud

Chris Hill · 09-24-2019, 06:25 PM

Is there an easy way to share pictures from iCloud to classracer that will allow a preview of the picture without needing to click on the link?

I've tried a few times and can't get it to work.

When Patsy HIll and I think Ken uses Photobucket to post pictures, the link goes to the .jpg file.

iCloud points to just a url address, not a .jpg file.

I think some html code or something would make it work, but I'm not sure what to search for to find the answer.

Here is an example of photo from photobucket:

This is the text directly from photobucket "URL=http://s368.photobucket.com/user/patsyhill_bucket/media/DSCN8626.jpg.html]

[/URL"

Here is an example of photo link from iCloud:

Chris I don't know anything about iCloud but I use the photobucket app and it works well and is very easy and quick. That's about all the help I can give computer guru I am not.

Not sure about iCloud but after photobucket went crazy with their outrageous fees, I started loading my car pics to my facebook account so I could post them on forums.

You can do this with almost every pic on the internet.

I will try my best to explain how to do it....

a......find the pic and right click on it
b.....select " copy image address "
c....go to your post on class racer and type: [img]
d....then paste the link you just got from the pic
e....finish off the image link by doing the [img] again but this time add the forward slash before img....like this ..... [/img]

make sure there are no spaces.
It should look something like this:
