    Rob, what do you mean by "large pics"? I'm going to assume you know this but just for the sake of communication, you don't need, or want to upload large file size pics to the GSR, or onto your hosting site for that matter, unless you really need that.
    Have you tried emailing/reaching out to Imgur via there help page? It took me a minute to find it. I used Imgur regularly, in fact I just logged in with zero issues.

      I am pretty sure Rob is trying to just post his photos in full size, like most of us do, rather than a thumbnail.

            Pay us $400 per year or lose all your pics, basically, and in the meantime all the pics that had been linked to thousands of forums went blank.
            That was the original bone-headed notion that pyssed everyone off.
            Wow, that sounds dramatic. What a debacle.

              Rob, looks like Imgur is now back up. I just logged into and out of your account, long enough to grab this screenshot. Imgur sure does try hard to switch itself to the app or mobile version when using the phone. Again, you can’t get the BBCode needed to post full size (or various sizes) on the forum. You need to log in, full desktop site, not mobile, not Beta, not the App. You need it to display a screen that looks like this. Then you tap (mouse click) on an middle of an image on this screen, then a new screen will open showing different size and formats. Select a size, copy the BBCode, then past the copied code into the forum post. This image is done with exactly that process. I chose large thumbnail size.

                I don't get anything near as sophisticated as that fancy Imgur over capacity screen. I get a line or two of text on a white screen, it looks like a line of code from a program. Still getting it as soon as I tap sign in.

                  Rob, just for sh/ts and giggles, if you’re on iPad / Safari, try going to settings>Safari > Clear website data. Don’t know if it’ll help, but can’t hurt. What version of iOS are you on. Try updating?

                    Above is most of the message I get.

                      I believe I've just successfully created a Flickr account for myself, but I'm at a loss as to the next step. I set it up on my Samsung phone just so I could post pics to the GSR. Help is appreciated.

                        image by Bob Wayne, on Flickr

                        I know some have said I'm hard to shop for, but that's not really true. For instance, above is a 1972 Sportster. Four speed, shift on the right and brake on the left. Cable clutch and brake. The air cleaner is perfection and says, "1000." The seat reminds me of a 19-year-old girl in tight jeans.

                        Thanks to Rich for the Flickr lesson!

                            Well done Bob. Are you on a free account with Flicker then?
                            Also, I'm curious if you ever reached out to Imgur for help?

                              Never reached out to Imgur; I got a free Flickr account. I'll never get close to 1,000 photos. I think...

                              I owe it all to you, Rich.

                              And guys, if you can't find a '72 Sporty in that color, don't worry.
