Default How To Post Pics Via Mobile Device???

I could just be getting OLDer and DUMBer, but I can't seem to post pics via my phone. I don't use a photo sharing website like Picasa or Flika or (insert program here), but it doesn't look like I should need to. It gives the option to "browse my device" but it doesn't do anything. I use a Note 8 (and a Note 5 before that). Basically all of the other forums I've ever joined allow this function (and with great ease), so maybe I am just not doing it correctly.

Any advice or instructions on how to do this would be a huge help!

I always upload to https://imgbb.com and post the code here. Seems to work best.

It works on my phone just fine. Just pick the little photo icon (same icon as the web browser kind of) then select upload from device then pick the photos and let it upload.

Was hoping to avoid the middle-man process. It'd be just one more account to maintain, which I already have way too many of. But I'll keep that in mind.

What OS do you use, if you don't mind me asking.

Okay. I noticed two things. You have a different keyboard than what I have. I'm using the Swype keyboard. I assume you're using the stock Samsung one (or Google). I don't have that first option you have on yours.

BUT.....

I tried with a different browser. I used Chrome and it worked! With the stock browser ("Samsung Internet"), it wouldn't go past the screenshot below. Correction. It would allow me to choose one of the two green buttons, but wouldn't actually commit to the action. It would just return to that screen and then I couldn't go any further. Using Chrome allowed me to complete all of the steps.

Thanks for your help!
