There seem to be a lot of people having problems posting pictures of their farms. Farms they've worked hard on and want to share with others. I've put this together to show you the way I do it. There are other ways, but I find this way fairly straightforward.
Firstly, unless you haven't installed one of the newer versions of Farm Story, you should have a 'Camera' button on the top right of the screen.
Tap it.
Tap 'Take Photo'
Tap 'Save to Photos'
This will save a photo of your farm on your iPhone (or other iThing), without any game data.
If you don't have the 'Camera' icon, take a screenshot in the usual way. This will show your game data along with your farm, as shown in the first picture.
The next step is to upload it to an image server. Photobucket is as good as any other, but there are others available.
Run the Photobucket App and follow the instructions for creating an account. It's all free.
Once you've got that sorted, tap on 'Upload Media' at the bottom of the screen, followed by 'Choose Existing' at the top left.
Browse to your Photo Albums (Camera Roll) and choose the picture you saved in the steps above.
When it's finished uploading, tap on 'Newest Uploads' and you should see it there.
Tap the picture you want to post on the forum.
Tap the 'i' on the bottom right of the screen. This will display 4 'URL Link Codes'.
Now, here's the IMPORTANT PART....
Tap the bottom option, the 'IMG' code. You will get a confirmation message to say 'Copied IMG Code'.
Tap 'OK'.
The last step is to post it on the forum.
Write whatever you like, eg. "This is my lovely farm".
Then 'paste' the previously copied IMG Code.
It should look a little something like this...
[ IMG ]https://i883.photobucket.com/albums/ac40/TongaTom/Instructions/4to6.jpg[ /IMG ]
It's important that the 'IMG' tags are at the start and end, otherwise the photo will not display correctly. If you followed the steps correctly and copied the 'IMG' code, then you won't have a problem.
You can always tap on 'Preview Post' to check that your post will look as you intended it, before tapping 'Submit New Thread'.
Note: if you tap 'Preview Post' the 'Image Verification' will change and you'll have to re-enter it if you've already done that.
I hope this goes some way to explaining how to upload pictures to this forum.
