There are quite a few ways to get pics from your phone to post here.
...email them to yourself and save the pic to a "pictures" folder on your computer
...use Google or Amazon photos and they will be accessible on all your devices (and TV if you have Chromecast or Amazon Fire Stick/TV). Any pic I take is auto uploaded to the cloud (both) and immediately accessible on my tablet/laptop/TV (I have it set to wifi upload only to save data). Just about Every day I get pics I took on that day in previous years..kinda cool.
Remove to SD card from your phone and use the MiniSD adapter to upload the pic file to your computer
...plug your phone into your computer and download all your pics. I do this around every 6 months and have a hard copy backup of all pics in addition to the cloud backup.

Photobucket is getting a lot of grief since it changed its model and is now a pain to get pics to post. They have moved to a paid storage site and the free hosting is severely limited. I would back up those pics that you have on PB before they disappear Your pics didn't attach.... This will also affect previous posts with pics you attached that might now be little boxes with an X in the middle I don't have many pics on PB so my storage is within limits and they will post (below)

Previously from Carol Hill: "All I do is email the picture to myself in Outlook and select the "medium" size, in order to resize it. Then you go to the St Maarten/St. Martin (or BVI) picture forum, and create a new thread, put SOMETHING in the post and click on the "I want to preview my post and/or attach a photo" and upload the picture. Once it's uploaded there, right click on the picture and the "properties" will show you the url of the picture, when you then use the IMAGE tag to post, in the regular forums. "

Even if your storage is within limits, as mine is, PB may block your ability to link to other sites. It seems to be a progressive thing, maybe related to the number of links or to the timing of them. Once blocked, all previous links are gone.

Good timing...I just got this from Photobucket: Our Terms of Service does not allow 3rd party hosting with your current account level. ...but if I want to pay $399 I can post for a year <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" />

I belong to several online forums where photos that have been shared forever are no longer available.
