What is the best method for posting photos with questions on Yahoo Answers?

I would like to recommend a method for other Posters with questions, to post photos of the item they are trying to repair. The key requirements would be one that is ad free, simple, and will keep them available indefinitely. I see many posts referring to photos that are no longer available, and that is no good. A service that would accept High Res photos, and allow others to zoom in would be good also. Thanks

    A member can link to another site.You could upload your image to a photo sharing site like photobucket, flikr or tiny pic.On the new YA, you can add media, check the link for instructions.

    To post a hyperlink; Left click on the URL to highlight it then right click and from the drop down menu left click on copy then go to where you want to put the URL, right click and from the drop down menu left click paste then double space.

    Please keep in mind, "rate me" type questions are violations for chatting

    You have to save a photo to your My Pictures, and then upload them from there

    If they are not in the Format or size Yahoo will accept, you will need to post them to Photobucket and one that page select Direct Link and post that URL and we will see a live link.

    L1 users can only paste the URL and we have to search for them, and often the whole URL will not post
