Thank you, Elliott - I’ve wondered just how that works; I’ve got some concert photos I took in the 1970’s that are on my website and would be pertinent to post on appropriate ’Music’ threads.

I use imgur to upload pictures from my phone. When in imgur hold down on the image and select copy. Then follow @elliottbnewcombjr instructions on how to add it here. I usually resize the image in the dialog box to avoid skewing the perspective.
