I can't understand why I am having so many problems with my photos! I don't know what else to do, so I decided to ask all of you for help.
I use a markdown helper; SteemStyle. It worked great for me until last night. I tried all night long to upload my photos to my post and it would not work. I thought there might be a glitch and it would be fixed by today. Tried again today and it still didn't work. Then I went to my image host; PostImage and clicked on one of my images that I was going to use last night. Guess what I got? A message that said, "404 NOT FOUND." Clicked on all of my photos and got the same message. What? My photos are gone...AGAIN? I contacted them and have not heard anything back. Waited a couple of hours, went back to my image host and clicked on another one of my images. What did I get this time? An image of a nude woman with legs spread wide open! What the hell? Did someone hack into my images?
I tried to find other markdown helpers. I don't have an iPhone so downloading an app is out for me; even though I tried and it didn't work. Then I came here and clicked on "Post." But wait; there is no button to click on to drag and drop your photos, and no button to click to center your images. I found out how to center by doing it manually, like this:
And I guess I will have to copy/paste my images?
I have many images for each post; especially with the "My ABC's of Nature Series" that I began on Monday. This would take me forever to do one post. And I really do need the help of a markdown helper with the way my eyes are now.
My first question: Do you think I need to use a new image host? What do you use for your image host?
My second question: Do you use a markdown helper? If so, what do you recommend? I have already searched here and I only found 2 different ones which did not work for me.
Thank you so much for your help. I am ready to pull my hair out and scream! If I have no other choice, I will do it the long way.
I put my pics on Instagram, then copy url to steemit, or just drug and drop the image from my laptop to the post. Seems to be working ok, although Instagram a bit tedious : )
Good luck with your photos, and dont forget to mark the lady's picture as NSFW : )))
I use www.imgur.com for my pics. I don't use a markdown editor as I learned HTML years ago and it's very similar.
I hope you find one that works for you and that you get your pics issued resolved.
Thanks so much for your reply. I sure do appreciate it! : )
Hi I use smart phone so probably a little different from PC...not very sure...but login through goolge Chrome sometimes reduce the problem for me. I got 404 NOT FOUND before as well... problem then was that I had the extra space or ) where it shouldn't be...
Thanks for your reply. My photos are now back on postimage.
That's great!
You are not going to believe this! I am in the middle of my post and my image host site just went down! OMG!!! I can't use imgur.com because of the dark background! Can I scream now?
Yes you can...as much as you would like...I got your back lol. I understand now...you use image hosting site...I don't know the good hosting site. Sorry I'm not much of the help...
Thanks for having my back! You help just by being my friend. The site is up and running again so I did get my post finished for today. But my first post (after being away for over 2 weeks) was all about actually losing over 500 of my photographs...forever because I did not save them to my computer. Hopefully, there will not be any more troubles for me! LOL!
I uses imgur as well to upload my photos.
I use the site http://wri.pe to do my post making and copy and paste over.
I like to use the markdown tag for inserting pictures
I find it to be faster than the html, which is also easy
< img src = "link to image " >< / img> Be sure to remove the spaces. It didn't want to post this code without the spaces...But I haven't heard of people losing their posts on Steemit much anymore. You could always go back to using the original uploader.
Thanks so much! : )
have you tried the eSteem app? for the phone. I hardly use my PC to post ob steemit.
or try image host, I use imgbb.com
give it a try
I don't have the phone so I can't use the app. I will go check out imgbb.com. Thanks for the information! : )
You don't need markdown helper if I understand correctly
All the resources you need can be found on steem
