So, a little confused...can you use the BBCODE IMG and /IMG tags in a post or not? I have a post all written up and want to copy and paste it into the Source. When I do that, all images (which are hosted on IMGUR) appear broken. When I attempt to upload an image to FT, the code looks the same but the image works:
If I put the BBCode directly in the source - this is the result:

I do not want to re-upload all of these photos to FT's albums.
Thanks in advance
We flew Singapore Air first class to Tokyo in the middle of May for a 15 days adventure:

I'm assuming this is related but I'm also seeing a bunch of 403s reported in the Developer console when I preview the potential post:
These images do resolve:

So I don't know why this javascript GET on the site is returning a 403

well, good to know I was not doing anything stupid...ugh, so the only really option is to pull them down from IMGUR via the Image Upload tool? Any other potential workaround?

Test. I've never uploaded a pic in a FT post before. This came from one of my albums on my laptop. Now, how do I post a pic from my phone. It's a Galaxy A10e. Do I have to move the pic from my phone to my laptop first?
Thx

Click on the "photo" icon.
Click on "From Device"
Click on "Media Picker" or whatever the equivalent might be on your phone (mine is a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra)
Select the type of media. "Screenshot" in this example
Check the images that you wish to upload and then click on "Select"
From this point on, the process is identical to uploading images from your computer.

The last few weeks I've been unable to add images to my posts either by pasting in the edit box or uploading via "Advanced".
Is this a problem at my end, or has there been a change somewhere on FT? (Chrome browser on Windows 10)

It's now asking to upload from ALBUMS not from the gallery. (I don't have albums)
Not sure if this is an issue with my phone (Android) or with Flyertalk/vBulletin???
Edit: issue with FireFox ---> it works with Brave.

I try to upload a jpg picture with the "Go Advanced" option. I always get an upload error. No hint what went wrong or why I can't upload any pictures. I checked the data type, size of the file. All good on that side.
That's what I get

How large is the photo in MB? Does the photo stop at a certain percentage uploaded?
