I've posted here before with pictures, without any issues. Today I upgraded my account to Basic Membership. When I try to post a photo using the image code from my PhotoBucket account, I get "Error: Invalid File". If I try to upload the image directly from my computer, I get "Upload of Image Failed".

Like I said, I've done this before, so it's not like I'm a newbie. Anyone have similar experience that can help?
 
I posted pictures for years from my iPads and iphone. Now all my pictures are erased and declared invalid. I think Tapatalk queered the process.
 
Rookie, we get erratic errors for no apparrent reason from time to time. Try this. Log out, clear your cookies, history, etc. Log back in. Try posting pictures again.
 
Well, I logged out of both BF and PhotoBucket. Then erased all cookies/temp files from my internet browser. Closed and reopened my browser. Then logged back in to PhotoBucket, and to BF. And still getting the same error. I'll keep playing with it.
 
Are you trying to upload a picture from Photobucket to BladeForums? :confused: It kinda sounds like it, and I'm unsure why you would do that.

Just use the IMG code generated by Photobucket (4th option), and paste it into the text of your post. Pretty simple.

If that IS what you're trying and it isn't working, try using the direct link code (2nd option) instead, and then enclose that with the IMG code, either by clicking that option in the text editor or manually typing it out.

ETA: In case you aren't aware, the current IMG code option on Photobucket creates a clickable photo which takes you to the Photobucket website if clicked. I've had some problems with it in the past, and wish they would have left it as the old basic, non-clickable IMG code.
 
Glad that got all figured out. Thanks to Esav and Spyder for their assistance. I was trying to paste the image URL by using the "Insert Image" button. I found it works faster and easier to just paste it into the text of the message.
