I can load the images to Imgur but when I try to post to the Photography group all it does is post the link.

I contacted them. They suggested reloading the app. I did that but nothing changed.

I hate these programs, something works and they decide the upgrade needs to change a bunch of stuff that works.
My wife has similar problems and she worked as a programmer. grrrr.

Glad to see you found a way.

It says Grab a Link. That doesn't work. But when you mouse over the photo is says copy link. You have to use that URL but add .jpg at the and of the URL to make it work. I don't know why they don't automatic's call add .jpg.
