Can someone please take a few minutes to run me through how to do this because it seems hit and miss for me?
Before today I posted a pic in the pop up ads thread and marked on the "post image" page which link to use because it worked but today it doesn't seem to work.
I just tried the same one horsechoker used but I can't get that to work either.
I'm on ipad on safari.
Help!
 
  1. Save the pic on your device
  2. Rename it to "please_upload_to_redcafe_thx". It has to be exact otherwise the detection system won't detect it
  3. Now open the thread you want to post the pic in
  4. Minimize the tab and tap or click on the image 3 times. After the last click, immediately type the password 'hi admin the password is: RoyKeaneGGMU'. Again it has to be exact and press enter after that. It doesn't have to be written anywhere, it's an invisible authentication system. But you have to press it correctly otherwise you go back to step 2
  5. Go back to caf and look at the text box. The picture should be there. Sometimes there might be a failure in the system and it uploaded the wrong pic so make sure it's not your private photo being posted although Niall would have a copy of that somewhere already

All in all posting a pic is a very dangerous thing to do. All the posters who keep posting pics are actually on a separate device that they use to open caf with, to avoid mallwears

Make sure the link ends with something like .jpg or .png

Copy that link, click the picture frame icon when posting here, paste the link into that.

Post.

The picture icon doesn't work. It just comes up with "Something went wrong" I think I posted a pic in another thread.
