I have copied the first post in this thread to this wiki so anyone can edit it.
************************************************** *******
A few people have asked in various threads, and I though that this might be a good opportunity to have some instructions for the various image hosting services out there on how to present their images on the TPF forum. I'm going to include the couple responses I've already drafted, but if people have info for ones I haven't included feel free to suggest the provider to me and/or write up the instructions.

If you're having trouble posting images and cannot seem to figure out why they aren't showing up in the post, make sure to check your profile settings. There is an option to display images or not, and that may be the source of the problems. To get to the setting, click on the My FlyerTalk link, then on the Edit Options link. On that page scroll down and make sure that the check box is selected next to the option "Show Images (including attached images and images in [IMG] code)" and save the settings. Hopefully that will fix things.
Update:
Just wanted to add a welcome to folks who are coming over to this thread from some of the other fora that recently had photo embedding enabled. If you're having any problems or want to include details about a new hosting service please feel free to post in this thread and/or PM me.

Hi,
i am trying to share some photos for my trip report and about a third of the time, there is at least one error message popping up when trying to upload the pictures : it says : Alert, there was an issue processing the data, and removes the picture from the list. I eventually manage to upload it again by trying again but this is quite annoying.
Also, Sometimes, when trying to upload multiple pictures, some remain stuck at 100% loading but do not show up.
Any known way to fix this ?
Thanks for your help.

How are you posting? Direct or via a photo storage service. I never have trouble posting from my SmugMug account.

A generic query: TRs frequently leave just one blank line between pix, which may have a caption in it. The thing is, there's no consistency as to whether the caption refers to the photo above or the photo below. Often you can work it out from the pics themselves, but fairly often, especially when several similar shots follow each other, it is difficult to say which pic the caption is referring to. Is there any etiquette or consensus which says which is preferable? I have no preference. I just want to avoid having to scroll up and down all the time. A good way of avoiding this problem is to leave an extra line of white space, which then clarifies the issue.

Question: Is there a way to turn off the irritating Flickr watermark slideshow footer?
When I use "source" in the edit mode, it posts accurately without watermark. When I click save changes, it appears.
I have tried the usual unticking of the Automatically parse links in text and Automatically retrieve titles from external links boxes but this issue persists.
Help?
