kryptronic Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 BMP files generally are viewable on the web, but the forum software doesn't appear to be equipped to handle them in the same fashion as JPEGs and GIFs. Complicating matters is that you're trying to pull them from facebook, which uses a permissions structure and image references that would make that very difficult for the forum software to achieve what you want (ie: not worth it). So, you may have luck doing this with some JPEGs.
Pete M Posted March 29, 2018 Author Posted March 29, 2018 originally I was kinda hoping that our software would automatically save and host the pic and thus save me from downloading them just to re-upload them, but oh well. it was a worthwhile test.

Pete M Posted March 30, 2018 Author Posted March 30, 2018 yes, but is it from an internet source or the desktop? from a desktop seems to work fine (assuming it's a jpg). I was trying to pull straight from a webpage and I keep getting "other" things.
Ωhm Posted March 30, 2018 Posted March 30, 2018 Aren't some photos from websites just links to other websites?
Pete M Posted March 30, 2018 Author Posted March 30, 2018 yup. I was trying to skip steps (like copy/pasting the addy or download/upload for fb pics)
Pete M Posted March 30, 2018 Author Posted March 30, 2018 or maybe I'm just unlucky. the random pic in my last test can't even be seen doing it the proper way. dang. let's try another: 600 × 600 - hum3d.com
