Darn it. This seems to have stopped working for me, after being
trouble-free. Would anyone be able to advise what has happened, or have
any suggestions?

In short, I bring up the site, click on Browse, select the picture, click
Open, return to the opening page and click "Host Picture". Nothing
happens - it just goes back to the starting page. Beats me. Darn.

Dora

Close the opening page and repeat from the beginning (do like this for every
pic). When you will see the little photo on the right you are sure it is
successfully hosted.
Another thing. Don't put pics bigger than 100- 120 Kb.

I don't know what happened. I just tried and it worked. Have you
tried rebooting your computer? Sometimes you need to do that if
you're having weird problems.

Can't help with that, Dora, but I have a somewhat related question:

How long do the pics stay on Tinypics?

I had a look around the site, but failed to find any guidance there on
this point. I presume they are not held "forever" as it's unlikely
their storage space is infinite. :-)

Cheers, Phred.

Actually it worked for me by clicking "enter" instead of clicking the "Host
Picture."
Give that a try.

Tee Hee -- I think another name for internet IS "Infinite." I took off a
website page an incorrect page, instead of correcting it. To correct the
erroneous material, I just made a correct page. Now both pages are there -
the incorrect page is 'cached' and now I see that erroneous material quoted.
Those pictures even if they are unavailable, will be floating somewhere in
cyberspace.

Dee Dee, now you really *are* in trouble! Future historians will
undoubtedly give your first effort the precedence it deserves and
subsequent alterations will be regarded as transcription errors, at
best; or as your surrender to economic/political/peer pressure, at
worst (and most probable 🙂.

That works! Geez, do I feel really stupid. I hadn't scrolled down - just
looked on the page for the small photo. Geez again.
Many thanks, Om, and to everyone else kind enough to respond.

Don't. :-)
It took me a bit to discover it at first, and you are not the only one
to miss it initially.

It's confusing.
