STEEMIT PLEASE FIX - @ned please FIX image uploading for profiles - creates a lot of pain...

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

SOON THERE WILL BE MASS EXODUS FROM Steemit to ?

What?

it's self explanatory... @ned @sneak @timcliff

When I want to drag and drop images to my profile, it doesn't work. URL please?

Most users have no idea how to fix this. Or what to do next. Image hosting on many major sites offers this feature but it won't work with steemit.

Now users are really stuck!

This feature is so sorely lacking for two years now?

Some would say that's clear and direct LACK of INTEREST in the platform.
So the work around?

Drop images to steemit, let it upload the images, THEN use those URLs in your profile..

I had to do a google search and I know this lack of feature just kills user's interest.
Google image hosting and Drive doesn't work, so people are all over google searching for answers... for years now.

Sheesh man! F Me.

You have mentioned a very important things.I think most of the steemians went through this problem.Now a days most of the site has a easier uploading facility,steemit also now have that kind of facility.Thank's for posting such important issue.@upvoted

This is one of the most common problems for all people who are working on steemit.I am also having the same problem.Are you telling that the problem been solved?I dont know yet let me check if that happen then all the people who are suffering this problem they will be benefited.If that not happened then steemit should look after this issue seriously.Thanks for discussing this useful matter.@upvote

I had that problem in the beginning .... but the uploading of your profile in an empty content and then copy it´s URL without the brackets, go to your settings and paste the URL you just copied... and then save or update the setting.... that´s all there is to it.

I have tried minimum 10 times to upload my profiles picture but I still can't upload my Profile Picture.

Dear Sir, if you have free time, please visit my Blog.

  1. make a post with the image that you want as profile pic/background pic.
  2. go to the post and right click on the image, then choose 'copy image location'
  3. go to 'profile settings' and paste the link in your 'profile pic/ background pic' space.
  4. enjoy :)

Finally i have done it. Thank you so for this information.

Thats some GOOD knews .. it happens to me last month but now i am here .. cheers .. :)

Im still battling with this issue. My profile url from the host site refused to load on steem it

Just drop images into a blank POST screen on Steemit and then grab the URL from there to post to the profile. It's obvious and NOT obvious at the same time.

I had to do a google search and I'm a software engineer, so I FEEL SORRY FOR MY MOM!

lol at so i feel sorry for my mum, please not only your mum friend, most of us don't have any idea of what to do. thanks anyways

thank you @artzone

Very informative I really appreciate @artzone

Wow so beautiful friend 😘😘😘

Good post my friend @artzone

Amazing thanks for this tip! Follow and upvote you!

i can imagine the reason it works this way is due to the way servers are setup. No idea why, but some other sites make you use a URL instead of allowing upload. You can upload an image to Minds.com as use that, which is what i had done.

Thank you for the info on my wallet I will use this tag for sure and look for others that have an art related to upvote!

thanks and i have followed u

for a variety of reasons, this one included, I upload a lot of images to a hidden page on my website (also hidden from search engines) that nevertheless I have a link to in my bookmarks so it is easily accessible. This particularly for images I use over and over - like this one:

- or this, which I add to the artwork on my website that I had posted on steemit (with a link to the relevant post):

or this:

besides that, I have a rtf document cheat sheet with various pre-configured templates that I just copy/paste.
