He meant upload them directly to CG to post in a thread. Sadly you will have to use a thirdparty like DropBox or something to host them.

Well, not really. I meant just in general for a way to get them onto the site. I know you cannot upload directly.

Post by: Statua on May 07, 2015, 10:25:30 PM: Listen to Adam S. I use dropbox as well. Yout take a picture and it uploads it to DB immediately automatically (if you have set it that way, recommended you have unlimited data). From there, you can go into your dropbox app, find the photo, move it to your public folder, and copy the public link. I do it that way, or i log on to my computer which is linked to dropbox, move the photo there and grab the public link which is a bit faster. I can usually take a photo and it'll be on my computer within 10-15 seconds.

Then either when you take a screenshot of your phone (For most samsung devices, press and hold your home button and power button at the same time for 2 seconds) it will automatically upload the screenshot to your Puush account and copy the link to your clipboard.
Or I think you can also make it Puush already taken photos from your device in the options.
