How do I add a photo to a forum post?

[Pinkgreen (Catherine Pascoe)]

I am very new to Folksy forums and I am feeling a bit dim - how do I go about adding a photo to a forum posting? Sorry if it is an obvious answer. I did try doing a search but couldn’t turn up anything helpful! Thanks in advance!!

Hi Catherine, you can just put the URL of the image into the post, or if you want to upload one or make it link to a listing there are some instructions in this thread

Posting images that link to an item page

Update: You can now simply post a link to your listing page on Folksy (e.g. http://folksy.com/items/2688554-Folksy-badges) and a preview of your item (image + description with clickable link) will automatically appear like this: Posting images If you still want to post an image, you can! Here's how: Please note: This looks really complicated when it’s written down in such detail, but I promise it isn’t - just take your time to read the instructions carefully. If there’s anything that doesn’t…

You just use the symbol that looks like an upwards arrow at the top of the reply box.
