I am stumped. I read the post on how to do this, but still cannot. At least not on my phone (Android). This is probably in the wrong forum too. Correction welcome:

So how do I copy and paste a picture in here into a thread? One that I do not wish you host elsewhere? On my phone, I can select a picture and I can copy it to clipboard (just "copy" w/o "to clipboard" is not a choice it seems). I can paste it into many things, e.g the Samsung Note app, but if I try to paste it into a reply to a thread here, all that ever pastes in is the last text string copied to clipboard (even if a day ago), never the picture just put there.

What am I missing?
 
Upload it to an album first and then you can insert it into a message. I haven't been able to find a way to do it from the clipboard. Hope this helps you.
 
I have a photobucket app on my phone. Pics I want to share get sent up to that library.

Then I can past the link from photobucket onto my posts.
 
Photobucket is no longer allowing 3rd party pic hosting unless you pay. My photos hosted on Photobucket that I posted on another forum are all no longer viewable.

Best to use the SB photo album option.
