Uploading Photos

What's the best way to upload photos/screenshot on here? I've tried before and it didn't work but I'm relatively new to this and never attempted this before (other than my failed attempt)

Thank you ^^

    You need to sign up to a picture hosting site if you haven't already (Everyone has their favorite, but I like Imgur the best), then upload your screenshots there & copy & paste the BBCode to post here.

    Here's a thread that can give you a more detailed tutorial http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/830602/tutorial-how-to-upload-pictures-to-this-forum/p1

    I started years ago with the free side of Photobucket, but they have since pulled their third party sharing, unless you pay a fee. I now use Imgur and am really liking it. I've also discovered a way to pull my images from Photobucket back into my own Pictures documents, so I don't lose anything.

    I personally haven't used Imgur, but know many photographers who have and it's a good site for general picture hosting for game screenshots as well as any other types of pictures. I tend to prefer Google Photos, mainly because I put my images on a blog first then post them them to the forum when I'm writing a story or sharing images.

    As a photographer, I tend to use 500px (which is only for photography), and Google Photos - to use for my photography blog.

    But Google Photos only for my Sims 3 play.

    EA should have included the facility for uploading saved pictures to the Forum itself instead of Simmers having to rely on third party programs. Especially considering the breaches of security in Facebook and Google lately. Just sayin. I got pwnd last year.
