There's a lengthy thread on the topic of posting photos in Jaguar Forums Feedback & Suggestion Centre forum:

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/j...pictures-2418/

There's two methods of attaching photos to a post:

1. uploading to the forum
2. linking to cloud, Flikr, Photobucket etc

The first method is the best. Photos are stored on the forum servers and always stay with the relevant post.

You will find the forums littered with posts with 'image not available' or a similar message where the second method has been used. If the original destination folder is renamed or moved, the link is broken and the photo lost from the post.

Here's an example from a door waist rail refurbishment thread in FAQ's:

Sending Photos-photo.jpg
(click on the image to enlarge it)

The first and third images (arrowed in red) were linked to tinypic storage; the second image (arrowed in green) was uploaded to the forum. The tinypic account was closed and those images are now gone.
