If someone just posts a imgbb URL it's also easy to just pick up the BBcode and repost it
That's ridiculous; you still have to open every individual link in order to do that.
I'm seeing 12+ individual embed codes in threads and, frankly, I stopped opening them a good while ago.
Just tell them about the drop down list?
You have to bear in mind a lot of people are not good with these things and just getting the pics uploaded is a start. Actually another good feature of imgbb is that if you drop a batch of pics onto it you can copy all of the BBcodes in one click and paste them all here, although they may not be in the optimal order.
Another good thing is that you don't have to sign up but it doesn't stop what I'm talking about being a pita.
I'm no good with these things either but had it it been
emphasised to me in the first place I'd have had more chance to get it right
initially.
As you may have noted, I still use your original recommendation Flickr because I find it straightforward now I understand it. But controls are image based so can be difficult to start, whereas imgbb couldn't be clearer; I got it first time.
It's often important to be able to flick backwards and forwards to multiple images in one tab, e.g. I parked here; I said; They said; etc.
rather than having to click across multiple tabs.
