I tried to post pictures using the new "upload picture" button, but even phone pictures are too large??? When I try to use Photobucket it only shows the pictures after I go to edit and even then it shows lines of code with the picture...
What am I missing here?

Not sure what you're missing but,
I just grabbed the img code from PB for this pic.
After pasting the img code I couldn't add text in the preview page(the bottom where one would normally edit), had to hit the back button to get back to the reply box to add text and just the img codes were showing.

Works fine, just excessive or unusual clicking around to get it done.

The picture showed... but still with the extra crap around it. There has to be another way other than re-writing the code???
 
Are you direct pasting to the reply box or using the upload button?
I just pasted the img code in the reply box like I usually do.
 
are you pasting a BBCode-formatted link straight into the reply box, or are you clicking on the button to insert an image?

this one: insert image.PNG
 
I am tapping the link in Photobucket and pasting into this text box, just as I did in the past with no issue.
 
which link are you tapping? is is the BBCode formatted one or a different one?
 
Still trying:)

Edit to add- got it now! It evens works on edited posts:) I posted a cat picture to try a different album...

You should click on the 'direct link' option (rather than the 'IMG' option) , then click on the 'insert image' button (inbetween the smiley face and the video film buttons) and past that link in that option, should give you the photo and nothing else.
